Goodreads asked Vicki L. Weavil:

Where did you get the idea for your most recent book?

Vicki L. Weavil For CROWN OF ICE: Two years ago, I read several Twitter comments from agents and editors talking about retelling fairy tales from the villain's POV. I was looking for an idea for a Young Adult fantasy, so this sparked my interest in considering a retelling. "The Snow Queen" by Hans Christian Andersen was always one of my favorite fairy tales, and I thought a story from the Snow Queen's point-of-view would be a challenge--and I love challenges!
