About Me
Absolute Vanilla aka Nicky Schmidt, YA and children's writer with a passion for vanilla. Yes, you've been right all along, my real name's not Vanilla, if you like, you can call me Nicky... But I don't suggest you call that chicken anything other than Atyllah, she has views...
If your whole body were a hot air balloon, would you stop eating spicy food?
Atyllah says: "What? And let everyone miss out on the wonderful technicolour fireworks as I drift through the sky? No chance!"
