Maybe I shouldn't be so critical, but I find it just a little pretentious for a writer with books like "Wings," "Spells," and "Illusions" (young adult magical romance series) to be wearing a tutu in her author photo on the book jacket. A TUTU, for Christ's sake.
"Oh, THIS old thing? I guess I forgot I was surrounded by tufts of gauzy fairy magic... It's just my way."

IN THE INTEREST OF FULL DISCLOSURE:
I myself have indulged in pretentious author photos, and will no doubt do so again in the future.

| I don't drink, but this seemed like a funny set-up for my "Skelebunnies" author photo |
