Devika asked Cornelia Funke:

So I'm back again with another question! I'm sorry (& grateful <3) but there's just one tiny thing I want to know.I'm sure since you're such a terrific writer, you must be an avid reader.I know it's weird,but do/did you feel protective about a book you closely connected with and wished to keep it only for yourselves,feeling as if sharing it was the end of all things ?

Cornelia Funke No, I never felt like that Delvka! I usually can't wait to hear my readers' footsteps in the worlds I create. But maybe it is different for writers who write very autobiographical material. My stories are of course inspired by my life - as all stories are mirrors of their writers - but they are also about everyone and therefore written for everyone.
