《Nexus》Content Poll

For anybody who's still following this, I have a question. Because I'm struggling to move forward with my writing, and I could use some feedback. (I'll probably delete this in a week or two, just to keep it from cluttering up the story.) My problem is this:
I have lots of ideas for a second book of Nexus, continuing Caley's story. The problem is, none of them are an actual plot, per-se. I have piles of sub-plot worthy material, but nothing big enough to string a complete story together. So my question is, would it be terrible to write a book that's basically a bunch of short stories woven together with only the main characters being the common thread between them, or should I hold off until I have some sort of connective tissue main plot to glue the whole thing together?
Your feedback is greatly appreciated. I love this story and these characters dearly, possibly more than any other I've written, and I really need a boost. Please and thank you!

A Ghost in the House of Iron
A faerie tale for fans of Holly Black & Naomi Novik. A dragon, fallen from the sun. An ancient grudge. A royal spy. The Ironborn wizards of Ylvemore thought they had won the war against the fae folk generations ago. They were wrong. *TEASER* He sighs, running a hand through his hair. The hand that just a moment ago was holding a small ball of fire. A couple stray embers flicker through the strands, but somehow they don't get singed. He catches me staring and I end up gazing speechlessly into his blue eyes for a moment. I clear my throat, blinking. "Your... The fire. I'm just not used to seeing that, still," I say. "I always expect you to... to burn." "I am burning," he says softly. . Updated weekly on Mondays. Also available on Wattpad!

Saulo Delanova is a young Amish. He doesn't use electricity, travels by horse and carriage, and eats what he sows in a community with a traditional lifestyle, rural and voluntarily separated from modern society. A community that for foreign eyes is frozen in time. When he decides to experience the modernity that he heard so much about the cities outside of his region, a theft forces him to stop on his way to the capital city. The situation would be manageable if it weren't for a detail. In his community they live under the principles of nonviolence! In a world where each being is born with an identifying color, can summon a weapon and fight with the power of the elements -or what is known as trinity or three characteristics of a user-, villains abound because of this power that each person can easily use. Ignorant of the life in the country's most important city, Saul will have to face culture shock to adapt to this outside world unknown to him, and to the people and events that will make him fall into the bowels of the world of temptations.
