Go ahead! Steal steal steal. The male form is Suman in case you need that. It’s from India.

Why, thank you!! ::huge blushy grin:: And may I say that “Sumana” is a gorgeous name. It flows over the tongue so elegantly, yet connotes strength. In fact… ::glazes over::

Uh… would you mind terribly if I steal your name for a future story? ::sheepish smile:: No promises, of course, but if the right character comes along…

Hi! I’m Sumana, the wife of your writing group friend Leonard Richardson. Now that I know how pretty you are I will have to accompany him to some of your critique sessions! ;->

They are all lovely photos! I look forward to seeing one of them on your book jacket. Wait, you have THREE novels coming out! You could use one on each!

Whereas I’m all for you showing cleavage as a general statement, I’m not feeling the cleavage shot as your book cover photo. I agree that the third is the strongest…

Hey, cleavage might not hurt. Sex sells, right?

…Oh, in the book. Whoops.

Not the first one, the photo is looking down your cleavage. (It could be cropped …) Second one is pretty good, but color balance is off. Third one’s the charm, great expression! Again with a little bit of color balance tweaking.
