#WritersCoffeeClub Oct 3: Should a writer have a face shot on their book cover or within their book?

I tend to think author face shots are a bit cheesy, something you might find in the eighties. A bit "murder she wrote".

Having said that, I have one on the back of my first book 😱. In my defence, I used a KDP template which had a face shot space. It doesn't have me looking studious before a book shelf 🙂. Just me, gurning at the camera 🤣.
