To put this in perspective as a major life event, I think the last time someone took pictures of my head alone was for my wedding, which is coming up to almost 8 years ago now.
So this is truly a big deal. Not to sound conceited (which of course this now will, I get it) I’m always surprised that I really look the way I do.Now, this isn’t good or bad, necessarily, but it always leads to a moment of Really? That’s what I look like?
Does anyone else feel that way? It’s the same as when I hear a recording of my voice. Ugh. I’m possibly quite conceited, or its my world view that is totally skewed.

Either way, I finally saddled up and rode out to get a head shot. I think they turned out relatively well, all the identity dysphoria aside.
Now, my big question is whether or not I should stick this on a cover of one of my books, or stay mysterious. Feel free to weigh in, all opinions (that don’t make me cry 🙂 much appreciated.
Until later!
I think it turned out just fine Heather!
Great picture ! I think you should put it on the book cover
