Hey folks,

Can someone recommend a series of interconnected #ShortStories in #fantasy or #sciencefiction genres?

I am trying to write some and would like to check how other authors have handled worldbuilding and plot threads spanning more than one story.

Quite keen on learning more about #searialisation and #episodic #storytelling.

Please boost for reach... I am sure someone here knows some gems.

@AndreShouldBeWriting Have you read much of the SCP Wiki? I found that following some of the hubs for the "groups of interest" and following links from different stories to different SCPs has been fun. There's vague allusions to other groups doings and to the SCP entries themselves.

@mauve @AndreShouldBeWriting in that specific line of thought, i can really recommend the scp-based storyline that author qntm (sam hughs) authored in: There is No Anti-Memetics Division

for interconnected shorts, i really like Ursula's Hainish cycle short stories. there are quite vague threads between them at times, other times they are more visible :) a particular shout out to Five Ways To Forgiveness

@cblgh @AndreShouldBeWriting OMG yes strong +1 for the "There is No Anti-Memetics Division". It's very much written like a bunch of short stories that tie into a larger one. Also Ra by qntm is v good. Also also Fine Structure was my first read by that author and I loved it. qntm.gumroad.com/l/ELFop

Also +1 to the Hainish Cycle stuff!
