Theresa asked Peng Shepherd:

Are you writing another book?

Peng Shepherd Yes, I am! I actually just finished the first draft about two weeks ago. It still needs a lot of revision, but I’m hoping to get a near-final draft of the manuscript to my editor by the end of the year/super early next year. (Seriously, where did this year GO?!?)

They always say that second books are the hardest out of them all to write, and it definitely feels true to me right now! I’m also trying something a little different, which is making the writing exciting in addition to slightly terrifying. I can’t say much more at this point, but I really hope you enjoy it once it’s out there. Thanks!

Hello Peng, Your book The Cartographers, was recommended to me, by my coworker and has been a big topic of our book club. I just finished reading it and thought it was amazing! Now I'm just wanting more. Do you think there is a chance of a sequel to The Cartographers?

Stefan asked Peng Shepherd:

How do you feel about spoiling things to potentially attract people who otherwise would only consider reading your book(s), but not sure if the time would be well spent? Would you go all out "No spoilers" or would you say something closer to "The ending won't/will be a good one" or even more?
