 #WritersCoffeeClub 03: Should a writer have a face shot on their book cover or within their book?

Yes and no.

Too many people judge the competency of people by their looks. If a writer isn't pretty or handsome, that can backfire.

On the other hand, it's nice to relate to a writer beyond their book.

Having said that, yes, I have a head shot in my books, in the back. 

See me in all my aged, grayed glory. Yes, that's Ember sitting on my shoulder.
