Joaquin asked Mark Lawrence:

Is Tuttugu based on asterix and obelix? Cant help but picture him every time he speaks. Also where is Atta? The engine of wrong for some reason really grabs my curiosity

Mark Lawrence He isn't, though I do have pretty much all of the Asterix books, mostly collected in the 70s. And yes, now you mention it I could definitely see him fitting into their village.

You'll have to figure out the map correspondences yourself, but this might help.

Hi Mark Being an author I very much admire, I wanted to ask you a most important question about how one becomes successful on such a long, demanding, tenuous and hazardous path as that which author's such as yourself tread. Such a path which may never be fruitful, abiding or even satisfying. So my question is this: Should I get a cat?

Jess asked Mark Lawrence:

Have you written a sequel to Red Sister? If so, when do you think it will be released?

David asked Mark Lawrence:

There's a popular saying that you must write and throw away a million words before you're able to write at a professional level of quality. How true was this for you?
