Also, lol, I made sure to have a strong ending before fully committing to certain aspects. Having a general idea of how you want your novel to end will help a lot in the long run. It's like you have a goalpost set to reach, and along the way, you will fill in the blanks and also make the ending stronger by the time you reach it.
Another aspect of organization that helps with long series writing is keeping a Draft Sheet with Character Information. For me, this also included reference pictures of characters, locations and a timeline to keep on track. In terms of character design, it helps make a character more concrete in your head, therefore translating better into the book.

on an unreachable pedestal, it is important to remember that there is not a single person in this world that is exactly like you. You are the only you; therefore, you are original, and no one can take that away from what you create.
