Because while Inkheart out of all of the books in this trilogy really shaped me into who I am, I believe Inkspell and Inkdeath also helped contribute making me into the fantasy loving person I am today. I say all of this because I’m currently rereading this trilogy once more and want to have an open discussion about the Inkworld and its influence in my life. It has taught me not only about myself and my own reading preferences, but also some important lessons every writer should at some point learn. I’d like to further continue that conversation by saying that I feel like the Inkworld trilogy as a whole has taught me so much. In that particular post, I talk about Inkheart’s influence on me. If you’ve read my blog post How I Became a Reader and Writer, you’d already know this. It wasn’t until one of my English teachers mentioned Inkheart in the sixth grade and I read that book during the summer that my love for the written word manifested into what it is today. When I was a child, I actually spent most of my days playing video games and watching television. Growing up, I didn’t always have as deep of a love for the written word as I do now.
