I like your idea very much. If I self published I believe I would go ahead with the trilogy, published all at the same time. But as it would be my first book I need to 'play it safe' with traditional publishers and agents. Also, as I am so close to the source materiel it is hard now to step back and see how I can turn the first book into a complete story in its own right as so many elements arc into the second and third books. Basically another round of editing is needed so I can get the word count down, or risk it and send it out as an epic and hope that agents and publishers will see the potential and realise they cannot be with out my book. I remain positive.
