Cornelia Funke
I have no idea what MBTI types are, but I am quite sure I don't use them. Books are very boring when they follow knitting patterns. For sure my characters are influenced by all the people I met and know, but I very rarely base a character on a true person. You easily lose your friends, if you do

Hallo Cornelia! Ich bin praktisch mit deinen Büchern grossgeworden - etwa Drachenreiter, Herr der Diebe, Kein Keks für Kobolde, später dann die Wilden Hühner und eben die Tintenwelt-Trilogie. Danke dir hab ich meine Liebe zum Lesen gefunden! (und bin jetzt Buchhändlerin) Meine Frage an dich: 1. Basieren die Charaktere Elinor Loredan und Fengulio auf realen Personen?

Hello Cornelia! Firstly I want to say thank you for your books, they were such an important part of my world as a child, and are still favorites to this day. I wanted to inquire about your earliest inspirations as a writer, who would you say influenced your writing style as you went about the creative process for books like The Dragon Rider? I'd love to know a few of them.

Hello! I first wanted to tell you that your series "Inkdeath" really moved me as a reader, I adore all of the wonderful characters you created. My question is, after the events of the third and final novel take place I'm left craving more of the story especially since some character's stories are just beginning in that book. Will you make a fourth novel, and if so, could you tell us some small things about it? Danke!
