Why not just a simple picture of you at your desk, in front of your word processor or computer, doing what you love to do: Writing? I'd only recommend a theme-based photo if you're pretty standard in your subject material - think Tom Clancy on a carrier or destroyer. If your stories focus on military, go with the Vietnam-era with you in your uniform, as it lends credibility to your pieces. If you compose mostly hunting/fishing things, the canoe and pup. And etc, and etc. Congratulations on the success so far! One day I hope to join you, but I am a ways away still. |
You write smut for gay porn mags, don't you? |
Blue Boy to be exact. |
But you would think for a professional writer you would break up that huge wall of words into separate paragraphs. Dunno... just a thought.... |
I find it very Faulknerian. |
| The reason for doing that is to draw you into the message. It makes you concentrate beyond the spoof of two second sound bites trying to grab attention. The difficult part is to keep them long enough to require concentration but not too long to lose attention. And by no means am I a professional. |
The fact that you were able to think that up is disturbing. What's more disturbing is that we've all be exposed to similar shit, via web searches and emails that our idiots friends have sent us. |
Oh, I didn't think it up. It's not my original idea at all. I was rather unfortunately and horrifically... inspired. |
I don't know what type of stories you write, or what type of magazines they are published in. Until then, I would suggest just a conservative portrait with a clean Oxford shirt and a smile. |

Here you go, I think it's your style: ar15.com/forums/topic.html?b=1&f=5&t=551251 |
