I loved 'almost perfect' I read it in my school library and couldn't put it down! Are you going to write a second novel about it?

While I've been frequently asked for a sequel, I'm afraid my publishers are not interested. I can tell you this about how I see the futures of Sage and Logan:
Logan takes well to college life and has several girlfriends. However, they always end up breaking up. "If this Sage girl was so damn perfect, why didn't you stay with her?"
Sage, meanwhile, has moved to a big city, away from the influences of her family and Logan. She thinks about Logan, but he's honoring her request that he not try to contact her. Sage blossoms into a confident young woman.
After a couple of years, Sage decides to return to Missouri to finish her education and be near her family. She contacts Logan, asking if he'd be interested in meeting and maybe rekindling their friendship. The thing is, Sage no longer hides the fact that she is transgender. She's out and proud, and is kind of an important voice for transgender rights. She's no longer ashamed.
Logan, of course, wants to see her again, and they both kind of realize they have unfinished business with each other. Would Logan be willing to date a transgender girl who's not hiding her past? Would Sage even want to give him another chance? Maybe they're both dating someone else at the time.
At any rate, if I wrote a sequel, that's where I'd see it going. Thanks for reading!

Hi Brian! I really loved your book, The Improbable Theory of Ana and Zak. It inspired me to be adventurous and brave in my own way.I was wondering what the storyline of your next novel will be about. Will it somehow be similar to Ana and Zak's story or something entirely different?I'm looking forward in reading it :D
