Ms. Walton, I admire the ingenuity of Tooth and Claw, namely that it's animal fiction for adults. In my experience as an author, the market for these types of novels has all but died in the last decade. Have you considered continuing the Tooth and Claw story or creating another animal universe? If so, is the present market a deterring factor?

Hi, I just wanted to ask how you came up with the concept for the fairies in 'Among Others'? They are both intangible and yet as real as every other character in the book. What made you think of them the way you've depicted them there? (Absolutely loved the book by the way!)

How do you reconcile feminism with Plato's following quote: "Completeness seems to require that something should be briefly said about other animals: first of women, who are probably degenerate and cowardly men" from Timaeus? And how do you rate highly someone who thought extreme eugenics is the way to go?
