Autorenporträt

From the Boston area, Nichol is a fan of all things art. Known for her weirdness, and general snarkasm, Nichol works to engage her audience in several mediums. Many stick to one favorite genre, but she can't seem to make up her mind. You will see her dipping into everything from graphic horror, graphic novels, to graphic romance. Trust the descriptions, mind the tags and just know that, if you like her writing, you're in for a good ride. Her favorite colors are black and burgundy red, and she loves tea with honey, indulging once a week on Saturday. Specifically Saturday. If it's not Saturday, tea shall not happen.
