Haley Nicole asked Rae Meadows:

Hey, my name is Haley. I was wondering if there are anymore pieces of writings you are currently working on or pieces we shall expect in the future?

Rae Meadows Hi, Haley, thanks so much for the question. I admit that I am not actively sitting down to write these weeks leading up to the book launch (and caring for two kids on summer break), but I am writing, in a sense that I am working out an idea in my head. After I finished writing this current novel, I went to the town in the Oklahoma Panhandle that I fictionalized. I was really taken by it for all its beauty, starkness, loneliness, and anger. I plan on writing my next book about a modern-day "Mulehead", and I may have Birdie--who is a teenager in I Will Send Rain--return as an old woman. I like the idea of linking the books without the second being a true sequel. I wrote a non-fiction piece about my visit to the Panhandle--I went with a photographer--and that will appear on the website Lit Hub on 8/22.
Thanks for taking the time to write!
