Sage Flinn asked Shannon Messenger:

Sorry I know I already asked a question, but I had one more that I just HAD to ask; Have you ever thought about writing a side series to the Keeper of that Lost Cities series, about Grady's daughter? Like what was happening with her and everything before Sophie came into the picture. It'd probably have a sad ending because she dies (not Sophie, Grady's daughter) and everything, but have you ever considered it?

Shannon Messenger No need to apologize--there's no limit on how many questions you can ask!

But I'm not sure if you'll like my answer. I haven't thought about that, and I have to say, the idea doesn't really appeal to me, mostly because readers already know the end of Jolie's story--and a lot of the key twists--so I'm not sure how I would add anything to it that would ever feel "exciting."

Of course if I ever GOT an idea for how to do that, I'd be open to it. But so far, I think Jolie's story is best kept where it's at, as a side note in Sophie's story.
