The Love Of Serials
Cynthia Sax, Author Of He Watches Me
The Seen Trilogy, my first release with
Avon Impulse, is a serial. The three novellas (He Watches Me, He
Touches Me, He Claims Me) follow the romance of Anna, an unlikely
exhibitionist, and Blaine, her enigmatic billionaire.
All of the installments of the serials
I write have beginnings and endings. When I sent my editor He Watches
Me, the first story, I didn’t mention there were two additional
stories. She read He Watches Me, loved it as a stand alone story, and
expressed an interest in reading more stories about the
not-so-innocent-yet-still-virginal Anna and the oh-so-sexy Blaine. I
had two more stories already written. Yes, this is how much I love
this couple. I was driven to write these stories so I could find out
what happened next in their rather unique relationship.
The difference between this serial and
my other more traditional romance series is the main characters
remain the same in all of The Seen Trilogy novellas and the stories
definitely should be read in order. Each story builds upon the
previous story as the relationship progresses. In He Touches Me, we
wouldn’t know how much even the most casual of touches from Blaine
means to Anna if we hadn’t already read He Watches Me.
Before I started writing The Seen
Trilogy, I had considered writing one novel instead of three
novellas. However, it soon became very clear that the relationship
between Anna and Blaine moves through three distinctive stages. Each
stage has a beginning and an ending. They were separate parts,
separate stories, and these stories deserved their own titles, their
own covers, their own focus.
Splitting the story into novellas also
gave me flexibility (as I mentioned, I originally only sent my editor
He Watches Me) and it gives reading buddies flexibility. Reading
buddies can read He Watches Me on Monday, He Touches Me on Tuesday,
and He Claims Me on Wednesday. I often do this with the serials I
read. I’ll read a part a day, dreaming about the hero each night,
savoring the story for as long as I can.
I love both reading and writing
serials. I enjoy following the same couple (or more) through their
relationship. I like pacing my reading the way the writer intended,
pausing where she thinks I should pause. I love the flexibility of
serials.
