When i was writing a fantasy story, i decided to make it one among a planned book series, one that would be called "Tales of Magic and Myth". However, now, I'm having a strange new idea on how to handle it.
Originally, my story was gonna have a back and forth type of narrative: some chapters would focus on the main lead and his adventures, while the others would tell what was going on meanwhile elsewhere. But now, I'm leaning more towards the first book setting certain things up at first and then completely focusing on the main lead's story. Then, in the book to follow, I would tell the "what was going on elsewhere at this time" story.
I have to ask though, is that a good move?
