Then, after publishing the first few ''Literature/HeraldsOfValdemar'' books, she did some ArcWelding and compiled some of the short stories into ''The Oathbound'', with a little editing and fresh interstitial tissue between them (including a few references to Valdemar) to make them more of a narrative.

* ''LightNovel/TheGardenOfSinners'' is a downplayed example: while it invokes the appearance of a patchwork story, between its multiple sub-novellas appearing in an AnachronicOrder, having wildly fluctuating lengths, and getting written and published over a period of several years, it is not so much a compilation, as a single novel with multiple expansions. The first to be written were the first five chapters/novellas, ''Overlooking View'' to ''Paradox Spiral'', which are also the only ones to fully employ AnachronicOrder for thematic effect. Nasu then wrote and published two more novellas, ''Oblivion Recorder'' and ''Murder Speculation, Part 2'', a year later to round off dangling plot threads. Ten years after the original publication, the story was again expanded with ''Future Gospel'', consisting of a short story set a decade after the main story, and an {{interquel}} novella. Then ''another'' five years down the line, Nasu was cajoled into writing one more novella, ''Final Record'', which borders CanonDiscontinuity and isn't typically included with the main body of the novel.

* ''LightNovel/TheGardenOfSinners'' is a downplayed example: while it invokes the appearance of a patchwork story, between its multiple sub-novellas appearing in an AnachronicOrder, having wildly fluctuating lengths, and getting written and published over a period of several years, it is not so much a compilation, as a single novel with multiple expansions. The first to be written were the first five chapters/novellas, ''Overlooking View'' to ''Paradox Spiral'', which are also the only ones to fully employ AnachronicOrder for thematic effect. Nasu then wrote and published two more novellas, ''Oblivion Recorder'' and ''Murder Speculation, Part 2'', a year later to round off dangling plot threads. Ten years after the original publication, the story was again expanded with ''Future Gospel'', consisting of a short story set a decade after the main story, and an {{interquel}} novella. Then ''another'' five years down the line, Nasu was cajoled into writing one more novella, ''Final Record'', which borders CanonDiscontinuity and isn't typically included with the main body of the novel.
