For example, the Warriors series by Erin Hunter has multiple series, but doesn't stop there. The team behind "Erin Hunter" has added guides, super editions, short stories, and comics to give the series more life and to fill in the holes that the main series never explains.
Ultimately, short stories can be a blessing for adding more character development, giving more depth to the overall plot, and elaborating on the themes in a series.
