This has worked for movies (James Bond, Star Wars, Star Trek, Terminator), for television in various forms, for children’s books (many of which are also read by adults, i.e., Harry Potter). People become emotionally attached to the characters in stories, and I agree, it’s a very marketable format as a result. I also have some stories that have begun in somewhat fragmented fashion, one more adult, one with an adult-child level anthropomorphic groundhog storyline. This format might work for them. Thanks.

Interesting concept, novel in stories; I have been working on a collection of short stories about an ex-pat psychologist living in Mexico City in the mid-1970s. The same key characters kept showing up in different stories I was writing about Mexico City, so I decided to do them as a novel. I agree that the format has appeal, because people get to “finish” a story before moving on to the next, & rediscovering one or more of the characters they’ve “met” before. It’s the way life works, in connected episodes
