When some see the pictures below, they might misconstrue the meaning. Contrary to what some might think, I haven't flipped my lid, and do not walk around with a Seer Staff and long flowing robes. LOL- not to demean those that do.
How the pictures came about: Awhile back I was doing a bit of writing, and was asked for photos. I figured some day I'd need some for book covers as well, so I asked a friend to do a photoshoot that lasted three hours at three sites. Susan Demko and her husband Jim Jasterzinski took all these photos.
Before this, my wife told me we were invited to a costume party. I'm 6'8" tall, and can't buy a costume off the shelf. So, I decided to make my own, wanting to go as Gandalf the White. Well, I just couldn't find the right fabrics on sale and took what I could get. The robe (before photo-editing is golden) And so, I stuck with the Seer idea, and decided to put a face on a character from a book I've written.
The costume shots were for the blog/Website I'm planning, depicting situations from the books. At the present time I'm starting to shop for a literary agent. The poor writing in the articles was primarily because of my cryptic attempts not to tell too much story or use character names until after I land an agent/publisher, and find out what they think I should do. (sample chapter...etc)
Here's what I look like, and a sample of poems from a great poetry site: [link]
