Make a Decision So I Don't Have to....

So here's the deal: I needed a picture of myself for this whole book thing. There's not going to be a author photo on the back cover so as to facilitate room for blurbs (four of them, holy smokes), but NYQ Books still needs one for their website and for my author page. I figure it can't hurt to replace the photos I've been using for press with something a bit more professional. Enter the talented and lovely Melodie Knight, who agreed to help me, as they say in the Blue Ridge Mountains of Virginia, 'get my picture made.' Here are our three favorites. Your task is to choose the winner. Log your vote in the comments, or on facebook. You have 24 hours.

*Took down the pictures because it made me feel like a jerk seeing my face over and over at the top of the blog. Thanks again for voting, all!*

Thanks again to Melodie, whom all you Seattle-ites should go see perform with Campfire OK this Friday at the Hard Rock Cafe in Seattle. Please excuse the vanity of this post. We'll be back to our regular programming in no time...

You look too happy. Where's the moroseness? Where's the angst? Where's the dark brooding? :)

Seriously, I vote number one.

No, wait...two. I vote two.

No, wait...
Heck. I'm not going to be of any help to you. Maybe you should put them in a hat and pick one out?

1 or 2, though I'm more likely to go with 2 when pressed, because it's a more unusual author photo composition. The first is super traditional (though good). Nix the third; you look like they forced you to publish. =)
