Across bookstores and the Web, book series have been immensely popular - across all genres. If you're wondering what makes a series of books so popular with both publishers and readers or desire to write a series of your own, listen to The Ins and Outs of Writing a Series.

Guest speaker and author Lauren Willig discusses what it is that makes series so attractive to both publishing houses and fans. Going element by element, she dissects what goes into different types of series, examining the various ways in which stories are linked together, with particular attention to the way series type differs by genre. She also discusses what you need to know to write an open-ended versus a close-ended series, and the pros and cons of each approach.

Among the different types of series she discusses are: family or friend-linked, thematically linked, geographically linked, single protagonist, changing story, or single protagonist, ongoing story. When you listen to this 92-minute online instructional video, you'll learn the definitions, pros and cons of each series type, and examples of popular book series from today's markets.

Once you've chosen the type of series you want to write, it's time to get into world-building and character development. Willig talks about ways in which you can turn your world into a place your readers want to return to again and again, whether it's an Alabama police station or a Regency ballroom. What is it that draws people in and keeps them there? Learn how to make your characters your readers' ongoing companions. Plus, she discusses character development for the long haul, creating characters who can grow and develop over time, and the art of managing a complex cast of ongoing characters and side characters.

Highly recommend during pregnancy and to wear around the house!
Color: Multicolor a (5-pack), Size: X-Large
Love!! I’m currently 33 weeks pregnant. I’m 5’6” and pre pregnancy weight I would fluctuate between 132-140 lbs easily. I now weigh 162 lbs and my hip is now measuring 40 inches. I bought the XL in the dark grey/black so that it wouldn’t be tight at all around my belly and I absolutely love them! Stretchy, comfortable, breathable. They aren’t loose around my thighs and I can tell they are gonna be nice to wear during post partum. I wear them around the house with an open robe and a bralette for the ultimate comfort. If I were to buy them before pregnancy, I’m positive that a large would have fit beautifully, even though the small/medium measurements on the size chart would have been my pre pregnancy weight, I know they would have been too tight. I detest tight underwear! Highly recommend!

Cute and Comfy
Color: Multicolor B (5-pack), Size: Medium
These are cute and comfy with a great fit. True to size they are cool and comfortable for everyday wear. I was going to order more but the price went up so I'm just waiting for it to go back down to order again.

Not what I’d hoped
Color: Multicolor a (5-pack), Size: Small
The fabric is nice, soft without being overly bulky. The design was almost what I wanted. I’ve been trying to find underwear that won’t ride up and is comfortable to wear under leggings. The fabric has a LOT of stretch around the legs and deforms quickly. Then it rides up and wrinkles. Smaller leg openings might make the difference.

Great & Comfortable
Color: Multicolor B (5-pack), Size: X-Large, Color: Multicolor B (5-pack), Size: X-Large
I have bought 2 packs of this underwear. I love wearing them. They are very comfortable, and the size fits perfectly. I like most of the colors. The Bamboo Cool lettering on the front does come off after washing though. Otherwise the underwear has been great to wear.

Better than woxer imo
Color: Multicolor B (5-pack), Size: Large
I've been buying Woxers, but theyre super expensive for what youre getting. These are similar in feel and style so i switched over. Another nice thing is i dont have to deal with wedgies like i do with the woxers. Theyre not perfect for wearing when its hot, youre still gunna sweat and these dont wick away sweat super well. But i havent seen many brands that do, and these are not the worst. Im 5'7" and 145lbs and these are comfy and tight enough but not snug. They still leave a bit of indentation on the love handles. You CAN tell that youre wearing them under pant if they are tight.
