I have a world (well universe since the main focus of the shared world has the ability for space travel) that I am working on some books on however I believe its really large enough that I can open it up to other writers aka shared world.

My question is does anyone have any experience with creating or writing in shared worlds? If so what are some of the advantages and pitfalls of going this route? (if needed I will separate the questions)
