Hello, Mrs./Miss Funke. I was reading the questions about this new series following the Inkworld series. I would like to know what could we expect from it and if we will be seeing some of the characters?. Also, I love your writing and pretty much every book you've written. Dankeschön

Dear Lina,
I think you are writing about MirrorWorld? I published three books so far in which some hints show this is InkWorld 500 years later. The characters are different (though I think there may be some blood relations:) but in Book 4 this may change....not sure yet. The story has it's own will in my experience whatever I plan! I also work on a sequel of Inkdeath called THE COLOR OF REVENGE which will of course have all the characters you know from Inkworld. (PS if you are German, Lina, please feel free to ask me in German!:)

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?

Hello Cornelia, I hope you're doing well. I revere the Inkheart series - these books really helped me grow up and form my identity. Of late, I was extremely curious about the original novels and I wanted to ask if Mo and Meggie speak Swiss German? I was wondering this based on Inkheart's locations. Thank you and I wish you many more happy hours of writing!

Greetings! I am attending a course on Children's Literature as part of being an Early Childhood Education student at my university. I am doing an author research project and I have always enjoyed your work. As my author of choice, I was wondering what inspirations are behind your works and what made you lean towards fantasy? Thanks!
