Anna

Anna asked Cornelia Funke:

Hi Cornelia! Before I ask this question, I just wanted to say that I read Inkheart so many times that. . well, my cover fell off. Calls Mo. So yeah, question. How did you contact all the people who give you copyright permissions? I'm writing my novel, and I don't know where to go to find permission. Would you mind helping?

Cornelia Funke Anna, getting those permission drove my publishers CRAZY. And sometimes they didn't get them or just for one language, so in some Ink-books the quotes are different from another edition.
I just used quotes again for a new books and I fear this will cause a lot of work for my editor!

C.K. Flook asked Cornelia Funke:

Cornelia, I discovered you today from goodreads' newsletter. My first memoir, "Shhhh!: Sad, Shocking and Sexy" came out in June. Marketing has felt like a nightmare--do you have any suggestions? Do you use a Publicist? I think we are neighbors, I live at Venice Beach. Looking forward to reading "Inkheart".

Do you ever plan a story out before you start writing it or do you let the story show you how it's going to play out?

Kailey

Kailey asked Cornelia Funke:

I have seen so many good comments on the inkworld books I've only read the first one and I LOVE it to. Knowing this how many people do you think like this trilogy? P.S. I plan to get the books when do you think the new inkworld book will come out in English or get to stores in America because I can't wait to read it. ;-)
