What is the best single story arc series?
Our March poll is live!
We do a lot of "Best Series" polls here at Writing About Writing, but March's poll is about a very specific kind of series. Many "series" tell several stories in a single world. Series like Dresden or Discworld have multiple discrete stories. But some series are really a single story spanning multiple books.
While one or all of the books (especially the first one in many cases) might stand alone, the series itself is really a single work.
Everyone will get four votes (4). Before you simply vote for your favorite four, consider that, as there is no ranking of those four votes; each vote beyond one dilutes the power of your choices a little more. So if you have a genuine favorite–or pair of favorites–it's better to use as few votes as possible.
The poll itself is on the left side, at the bottom of the side menus.
