One Word Interview with Nicole Zoltak

Today we welcome fantasy author Nicole Zoltak, author Black Hellebore to the writing chair. Take it away, Nicole!

Stranded on a desert island! What's your must-have item?
 A fully loaded kindle that has a never ending battery 

A wise decision. Books are necessary for survival for sure.

You've been plunked down in a fairy tale. What character are you?
Snow - but only if she's the Snow in Once Upon a Time.

Yes, she's much better than the Disney version, isn't she?

You are having your characters over for dinner. What are you serving?
Chicken with pesto and wine and something chocolaty for dessert

Your characters must love you! Yum.

What historical figure would you most like to have lunch with?
Joan of Arc

This is always the question I look forward to most. So many interesting people to choose from. I would love to meet Joan of Arc too!

If you could time travel to any period in history, where would you go? 
Late Middle Ages / early Renaissance 

A fascinating time.

Thank you so much for being with us, Nicole!
