HEADSHOT! Part 2
Recently, I talked a bit about the horrible experience of getting my headshots taken at the JC Penny Portrait Studio in the Springfield Mall. I never even went to pick up the pictures. I was content with the fact that Random House and Olsson's Books was content with the fact that Noel Tuazon's sketches of me were awesome.
Well...that didn't last long. Someone requested headshots for a newspaper feature and they didn't want to use the sketch. And I need to get them out ASAP.
Robin grabbed the camera and while we still had some daylight left we went outside and took some photos. I think I have one I'm happy with. Without further ado...a headshot that's good enough for now:

Ah, the ol' good enough for now comment. When you get a chance, it's good to have. I've been to a few book publicity conferences/seminars and they always say how important a headshot is. For the record, what you have now is indeed good enough for now.

That's actually a really good picture of you IMHO. You look downright amiable!

I agree it's a good photo. It's casual and makes you look laid back and intellectual (rather than a loud mouth Nuuw Yaark drunk...;)
