Lor asked Cornelia Funke:

Hello, Cornelia! One little question: what's the best idea for an Inkworld tattoo? Next week I'm getting Mad Hatter's hat on my arm, and the Sorting Hat on the other one. And, since I love Umbra more than Wonderland and more than Hogwarts, I think it's time to get a tattoo based on your books. I'm open to all kind of suggestions :D Thank you!

Cornelia Funke Not easy!:))) one of the medieval letters from the German covers maybe? Or a horned marten ( I always draw that when I sign the books) Or.... There is a small illustration with the shadows of Capricorn's men coming out of the book? Not too many lines so not too painful!:)

A Goodreads user asked Cornelia Funke:

Hello! I hope you don't mind my asking, but in the dedication of "Inkheart" you thanked your daughter for setting aside "The Lord Of The Rings" to read your book. Are you a Tolkien fan yourself? If so, has he (as well as any other favorite authors) influenced your writing style or character designs? Also, simply for my own curiosity, how did you come up with Dustfinger's name? Thank you for your time!

Hi Cornelia! I am a huge fan of your books and I am also an aspiring author. I was hoping you might have some advice for me about sticking to writing. How many words would you recommend trying to write in a day? I also have so many ideas, but I jump around and never finish. I have finally chosen one to see through first, but now I am having trouble finishing my plot and just writing in general. Any advice?

Emmanuel asked Cornelia Funke:

Bei der Tintenwelt-Trilogie handelt es sich meiner Meinung nach um die Beste deutschsprachige Jugendbuchreihe, weshalb ich mich sehr auf das neue Buch freue. Ich hätte jedoch zwei Fragen: Sie meinten, dass es auf Englisch "THE COLOR OF REVENGE" heißen wird. Wie würde der deutsche Name lauten? Und gibt es schon Neuigkeiten zum Erscheinungsjahr? :) Danke!
