UNWISE DECISIONS BY OTHERS

If you've written a book, try to take an author photo that doesn't make you look like someone the rest of us would want to either avoid in a bar or punch repeatedly in the face. I enjoyed The Lies of Locke Lamora, but even the fanciest, frilliest faux-Italian nobleman character from that book would call Scott Lynch a ponce of the highest possible order and kick him off a bridge at the first opportunity based solely on the picture of him on his book. Did nobody tell you your picture made you look like an asshole, dude? I am telling you this information now.
