The Book
Those of you who have read my article for Electric Lit know that I had my “author photo” taken a few weeks ago. I thought I’d share a few of my favorite, non-headshot pictures from the shoot, all taken by the wonderful Elisa Bricker.
Elisa, you are a photo whisperer - and a true miracle worker! Thank you, thank you, thank you.
