Pick an Author Photo Contest--$25 Amazon Gift Card

Stan had me take a bunch of pictures of him to use for his upcoming book. We chose the ten best photos...and then we ran out of decision making brain cells, so can we use yours?

#10




#9




#8




#7




#6




#5




#4




#3




#2




#1



There are two ways to enter -

1. Leave a comment on this blog post telling us which one you think would be the best author photo and include a way for us to contact you (e.g., email address) to deliver your prize. Please only one vote per person age 18 and older.

2.Like the book's facebook page or follow the author on twitter and leave a separate comment here on this blog saying that you did.

The winning entry will be chosen from the comments on this blog, so if you do both 1 and 2, it will double your chances.

On August 15th we will randomly pick one comment to win...

...a $25 Amazon.com gift card!

Good luck and thanks for your help :)


***UPDATE***

Thanks to RANDOM.org, we have a winner...




...and the winner is Shell Holland!

Thank you ALL for entering and for your feedback on the photos :)

#10 or #6 draw the most attention. Although the photos in front of the trees look good, they don't look as professional as the two above and for an author's photo, the details in those two photos tell so much about the author!

It's #10 for me! Shows some of his other passions and most book pics I see, the author doesn't smile so this fits.

I was going to say #10, but then I saw #6, and going back and forth, I think #6 looks more "authorly" (I make up my own words sometimes!) Best of luck with the book!

# 4 is my favorite but I also like # 10. If you are going for a sophisticated look pick # 10 if you are looking for a warm and approachable look go with # 4! Either way I am sure everything will work out fine.
