Olivia Simon asked Joanne Harris:

Where did you get the inspiration to write 'Chocolat'?

Johan Petersén asked Joanne Harris:

Hey, I read The gospel of Loki and it was the best book I have ever read. Do you have any plans on writing a sequel?

A Goodreads user
A Goodreads user asked Joanne Harris:

Not a question? I just wanted to say thank you for creating all the the worlds in your books and the wonderful snippets of others lives. You have given me hours of pleasure x

Tatiana
Tatiana asked Joanne Harris:

Hi Joanne! I'm a new huge fan of yours. I finally got around to reading Chocolat, and it has immediately gone down on my all-time favorites list. I watched the movie the night after finishing the book. I always get a kick out of the variations, while trying to view them as separate entities. How much, if any, input did you have in the making of the movie, and do you like it?
