A Goodreads user asked Rainbow Rowell:

Could we maybe hope that there will be other LGBTQ themed books from you in the future? (I don't know if you really thought of Carry On in these terms) Or you haven't really thought of this?

Rainbow Rowell I can promise you that I will write more stories with LGBTQ characters and main characters. The graphic novel that I'm working on with Faith Erin Hicks has a queer main character. (That comes out fall 2019.)

I don't really plan my books themed around identity... I usually start with the characters, and they come to me almost fully formed, however they are. I must make a lot of these decisions subconsciously.
