by I have a new book coming out in January called The Killing Fields of East New York (much more to come about that)! Which means I had to get a new author photo. Always an agonizing ordeal. Gone are the days when I could take a few shots and love every one of them. After hundreds and hundreds of takes, with different cameras and my new iphone, I picked one that made me look much younger and prettier than I look in reality. Here is the one I chose and the runner up.
Winner, taken with my new iphone 14.
The runner up, taken with my Cannon G9. Note the position of my arm, strategically placed to hide my neck.
They’re both beautiful because you are beautiful.
