Romance Writer’s Weekly: Character Interview-Henry Chilton

Welcome back to Romance Writers’ Weekly Blog Hop. If you came from the amazing Betty Bolte www.bettybolte.com/blog.htm- welcome!

 

This week’s question is by the amazing and talented Xio Axelrod.

 

It’s been a while since we interviewed our characters. Here are five questions, you choose which of your characters will answer.

 

Interview with Henry Chilton, Earl of Ripon, Professor of Anthropology, Oxford University

From “Untrue Colors”

1. Welcome to my blog. The first question seems pretty simple, but I bet you can come up with something that gives us a bit of an insight into your past. What’s your favorite word?

Thanks for having me. I try to avoid the public eye as much as possible, yet I feel quite indebted to you for allowing me the chance to meet Alex.  My favorite word is trust. I trust in the people around me, I just hope that I can get Simon and Alex to continue to trust me. Both of them have had people close to them let them down. I want them to understand that I am not like the people from their past.

2. What is your fondest childhood memory?

Spending time with my mother at the beach. My father, cheating jackass that he was, couldn’t be bothered to be with us and my mother was allowed to let her beautiful soul shine through.

3. What one thing in your past do you wish you could do differently?

I regret not telling Alex about my past military experience. I think she would have trusted me more if she had known that I wasn’t only an anthropology professor.

4. Vanilla or Chocolate?

Vanilla. Goes better with coffee, berries, and on apple streudel.

5. If you could have lunch with one famous person (alive or not) who would it be and why?

I’d have lunch with Alex’s father. He still doesn’t like me and I think we need some time to get to understand each other. And if he continues to treat me like a second class citizen, it would be great to tell him to go to hell without Alex with me.
