I think it's an excellent idea to try and write a series of short stories, all connected through the same world.
I write short stories when I need a break from my full-length books, but they're usually set in the same world and feature characters from the book series. It's a great way to get ideas not fit for novels out of the way, and it gives you a chance to explore characters in a different way than in a longer story where the flow runs differently.
