I'll give you a little scenario of what I'm doing, just because I have no idea if this is a good thing to do, the proper thing to do, etc.
Essentially, I have a novella series planned out. The first installment of it, I've planned to introduce characters separately (their back-story, why they're here, etc.) within 1-2 chapters. The reason I wanted to do this was because the series itself I have planned at 4 novellas (and I'm still developing the story further), and a lot of it is character driven, and since there's a huge cast of characters, I thought having the reader get to know them a bit better would be nice.
Is this bad practice? I asked this on another writing forum and the few people that posted didn't seem too thrilled.
