Series or Standalone? by Morgan Mandel

I see so many mystery series out there. They're very popular. The reader gets engrossed with a character and can hardly wait to read more about that character.

So far, I haven't been able to write a series. It seems all my inspiration comes in one dose. When I write a book, I'm totally immersed in the main character. When the book is done, that character is out of my system. I really can't think of anything more to say about him or her. I have a feeling if I tried, it would all be boring.

I wish I could do a series, since even later books generate interest in the earlier ones. Lots of possibilities for sales there.

I wonder how other authors feel. Let me know.
