Will therebe a sequel to The Ghost Bride or maybe a book on Er Lang before he met Li Lan era?

Hi Lena,
What a great idea - a prequel about Er Lang before he met Li Lan! That sounds like a lot of fun, especially since he was one of my favourite characters to write (and he took over a lot of the book which he wasn't supposed to, at the expense of poor Tian Bai...). I can imagine that a book devoted entirely to Er Lang might have lots of adventures, all carried out in a somewhat arrogant and highhanded manner ;)
Right now I'm working on my second novel, another strange tale set in 1930s colonial Malaya, but I'm definitely open to writing a sequel to The Ghost Bride in the future!
Best wishes,
Yangsze

I absolutely loved reading Ghost Bride. The setting of colonial-era Malaysia was utterly captivating. I’m from the region myself. The colonial times can be, well, emotionally stirring, but you have done something truly unique with this one. I really hope you write a sequel to the novel. Until then, can you perhaps recommend fans other books like Ghost Bride, in the sense of the setting and the mythology?

I just finished reading The Ghost Bride for class and I absolutely fell in love with it. I was wondering if you could make a sequel to it with the wedding and maybe add a major plot twist to where Er Lang meets someone else and tries to marry them? I feel like The Ghost Bride left your readers on a major cliff hanger. Thank you for any possibilities. If you could please email me at austinperry345@gmail.com. Thank you.
