How do y’all feel about continuing a series after an author dies? To me, I think one last book can be written to end it, but the series should rest with the author, just my thoughts though. I’m in the middle of a series right now and some random lady is “finishing” it, but she has written like 7 books that show no end. I’m not mad, but I just want to feel the satisfaction of completing a series and having the whole collection.

    Not exactly the same but my father passed away before he could finish publishing his 5th book. Luckily, it was the last in that series and since I was his final editor, I had all of the final chapters and I was able to finish editing them and publish his last book posthumously. His readers were very grateful and supportive. I miss him but am proud I was able to do that for him. Too many great authors pass away leaving their works unfinished.

      This is ok imo. It was done, just not “publishing” done. If you’d written it,or like, Joe down the block wrote it, I’d be like “nope”. This is a ok in my personal (irrelevant) opinion
