Joseph asked Peng Shepherd:

What is the longest mutual handwritten mail correspondence you have had with someone?

Peng Shepherd About a year. I was in grad school in London, and a friend from my hometown sent me a gorgeous little note that was almost more art than letter, with lots of doodles and colored ink and included some Polaroids and random magazine and newspaper clippings that were related to things she'd written. She didn't expect anything in return, but it was so beautiful and fun, I had to send one back to her, and then we fell into a rhythm with it. There's nothing better than getting a letter from a friend in the mail.

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?

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?
