After a long break....

I'm gearing up production for An Inconvenient Fortune, a new Regency novel set in England and in the Spanish colony of Antiago (loosely based on New Grenada). An Inconvenient Pirate, the second in the series, is nearing completion. Stay tuned! The whispers and shouts in the romance publishing industry that historical romance isn't selling...well, let's prove them wrong. ;)

A question for readers and writers

Pure curiosity: when you discover a new writer, do you prefer to find someone who has an already-written and published series out (say, 2+ books), so you can immediately go and read more of her writings, or are you more excited to find a brand-new writer who has the first in the series out?

Here's why I am asking: I'm thinking about writing the ENTIRE series featuring the South American triplets first, THEN issuing them all at the same time. 3 books, all linked to The Water's Kiss.

It means delaying the release of the first two (#1 is done, #2 is about 1/2 done), but it also means having all of the books out -- with a possible fourth, as Esteban might get his own book.

Or -- is it better NOT to sit on them, and to publish as they're done?

Give me your opinions in the comments, please!
