Another series

Edith Horton is very much alive and investigating but I was compelled to start another series...Ballytierney...a small Irish town in the 1950s and I am nearly finished the first. I will submit it to Tirgearr and then begin my fifth Edith. I love Edith but I also felt  the  need to have another series running in tandem. I wonder if any other writer identifies with  this.
