A Goodreads user asked Joanne Harris:

I wish to ask you something as writer-to-writer. What do you think about the movie novelizations and the fan art fiction? And How would you feel if someone tried to make a fan fiction about you?

Joanne Harris I'm fine with fan art and fan fiction - there's a lot of it about connected with my books, and I have no problem with people creating it. It seems to me to be a natural extension of fandom, and as long as it isn't monetized, I don't know of any authors who would object to it...

Hello, I am from Portugal and I really do love your books... I fall in love with the characters, with their manners, their way of thinking. My question is, how do you give them such dimension? Besides observing other people, which I also do, how can you create so many different ways of thinking, how can you teach us readers so many different lessons from each one of the characters?

I feel that The Strawberry Thief has brought a closure for Vianne. Do you think so, or are you planning to write more books in the series (I would personally love to read more :))? Perhaps stories of Anouk and Rosette?

Spasimira Katina asked Joanne Harris:

Hello, I am from Bulgaria and I adore every book I read from you. The last book I read was "Five Quarters of the Orange", I was wondering, what exactly was Tomas Leibniz feeling towards Framboise ? Was it a brotherly love, or maybe he just saw her more special then her borther and sister, or he was just using her for information ? Thank you!
