Carina asked Juliet Marillier:

Hi Juliet, your Sevenwaters series teleports me to such a beautiful place. I was wondering if there are places in the UK that, in your eyes, would be perfect settings for Sevenwaters?

Juliet Marillier Hi Carina. I recently stayed at Crom Castle in County Fermanagh (in Ireland) and thought the castle estate, which is open to the public, was a wonderful match for Sevenwaters. There's a very beautiful lake surrounded by woodland, and some ancient forest with huge old trees. There are some photos on my Facebook Fan Page. Crom also has a castle - but that is from the wrong period for Sevenwaters! I'm told that the Mourne Mountains area is also a great match for various places in the books. Fainne and Darragh's journey to Sevenwaters starts in the Ring of Kerry region.
all the best, Juliet

Hi Juliet, I have thoroughly enjoyed all your books for the past 15 years, and I wanted to thank you for creating such strong and brave characters who overcome such obstacles. I really enjoy the strong roots in folklore and fairy tales, and I wanted to ask you what books you have found most helpful in your research for writing'?

Brenda asked Juliet Marillier:

Dear Juliet, I was wondering if you ever considered writing a book with Australia or New Zealand as a background? I would love to read about these cultures, especially by your pen, and a Māori “Sorcha” seems like a dream. I really love the way you weave fantasy into “the real world”, your fierce characters and the LGBT touch. Thank you for sharing your magic with us!

Sorcha asked Juliet Marillier:

Are you going to re-release the Wildwood Dancing books in hardcover? I saw it on Amazon Australia and the hardcover ones are very expensive including the shipping fees. (guess I'll just get the paperback ones then) Also, which website do you use to buy your books from?
