Sarah asked Gail Carson Levine:

I know that 'Ella Enchanted' was loosely based off of Cinderella and 'Fairest' off of Snow White, but was 'Ever' ever based off of a fairy tale? Also as a side note: I love your books!!! Always the fangirl cliche… :D

If you could be transported to any of the lands you created, which would you like to live in?

Brook Barnett

Brook Barnett asked Gail Carson Levine:

I've always loved your retelling of classic fairytales, and I'm excited to read "Ogre Enchanted". I've never heard of "The False Prince and the True" before, but now that I looked it up, I like it a lot. Do you have a favorite fairy tale that you haven't been able to use in your books yet? Do you ever read other author's retellings and feel "I could do that better" or "Now I can't use that one"?
