I like number 8 for this purpose. It's attractive but serious.
None of it means a damn thing.

Oh, but did I mention that a lot of the writing I'm featuring is humorous? Does that matter?

The more I learn, the more I realize how little I know.
All good pix, Kristin. Impressions -- #6 and #8 look like excellent author-blurb material. #7 looks too posed. The last four are all good for distictly different moods.

Even with humorous writing, I think it's better that the picture isn't too over the top.

Okay, everyone--thanks!
I'm going to take the link down now. (If anyone comes in later and wants to chime in, feel free to check my LJ [pix_kristin]. It's friendslocked, so you'll have to let me friend you.)

To understand what happened at the diner, we shall use Mr. Papaya! This is upsetting because he's the friendliest of fruits.
Kristen, just saw the pictures and left comments on LJ. But wow. Gorgeous.
Also, the cover of my new poetry chapbook is up:

Thanks. The overall look of this one--cover, layout, etc.--is probably my favorite out of all eight of 'em.

It really doesn't matter. It's just an opinion. Don't worry about it. Not worth the hassle.
My point about the joy of the instant validation of fanfic is that you don't have to wonder "Can I write? Do I suck?" Someone will tell you.
Ah, that's a different animal entirely - no argument at all. Your post didn't read that way to me, though. But why trust the opinions of the readers of your fanfic more than you would trust the opinions of people reading your original stuff? Or is that a misconception? I regularly hand my original stuff out for beta-reading with wild abandon, and it never even occurs to me to have anyone beta my fanfic, so I'm 180 on that one, and I'm curious.
Kristin, I think I need to eat dinner before I look at pics.

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.
Karl, your drabble gave me a shiver, because I wonder that, too.
