So here it is, the photograph that will be splashed across the big screen at the Romance Writers of America® conference in July. I’m told it’s a good picture. See “Author photo? Ack!” below for how I feel about it.
The nose is really more Mr. Potato Head than Quasimodo, though.

Ah, Jane, I feel your pain–truly. I hate having my picture taken and don’t like the one I have either. When I look in the mirror I see The Me I was twenty years ago crossed with Ed McMahon–and not a single Publisher’s Clearing House check in sight.
I don’t know you in person yet, of course, but I sure see in your picture a person I’d love to meet. You look warm and happy and lvoely! And, I swear I’m not just saying this, but I never once thought of Mr. Potato Head until you mentioned it. Even now I don’t know that I see the resemblence … LOL.
Keep chatting about this journey we’re on–I love reading your insights. Can’t wait to meet you in Nashville.

Ed McMahon! LOL, Liz. I’m sure you don’t look anything like him. Sorry about the not checks part, though.
I guess most people hate having their pictures taken. There are probably even supermodels who anguish over them, too.
Thank you for the good words about my photo. I look forward to meeting you in the flesh in Nasvhille, too.

Love the photo Jane! Don’t stress at all at Nationals, just be proud of the wonderful work you’ve done.

Thank you, Jackie!
I don’t think I’m really stressing about Nationals. It’s going to be extra exciting this year, and I know my nose doesn’t look like Mr. Potato Head’s in person.
