I've been quite amazed this issue was never brought up before :
Imagine you have a plot, a setting and two great ideas for a magic system ? How do you decide which one to use ?
And what if you have several plots, settings, and magic systems ? How do you filter them to one or several book ?
And if you have a great character and you wonder whether to add this trait or this power or to use this given power or character trait in the next book or someone else ?
In short, what do you do with all the possibilities ?
How do you make choices as a writer ?
