Andi asked Lily Sparks:

I loved The Merciless King of Moore High, will we get a sequel? I'm crossing my fingers. It was one of my favorite, unique reads of last year, and I thank you for writing it. (Who would have thought court intrigue in a high school ala The Tribe would be so fun?)

Lily Sparks Thank you so much for reading Merciless King of Moore High, and for this question.

MKMH was always plotted as a series. Due to fluctuations in the publisher's structure, however, the first book will have to meet a certain sales threshold for that series to continue.

Like all authors, I do everything I can to promote. I do giveaways on tiktok, promote it on podcasts, and I have a video game coming out shortly that I've poured all my promotional resources into, which I hope will move the needle in our favor. The publisher has also been really great about book tours and promoting it to bloggers and even doing a cover reveal, which I did not have with the TKC series.

But it's hard to promote any book, let alone one that starts off from a pretty complicated premise, as a virtually unknown author. And the threshold is high, and the time to meet it is short. So please tell your friends to check it out!
