Clearly they are doing something right!
By the way, sorry I couldn't resist the cheesy dad joke in my headline, but the photos were just electrifying! (Doh!)

For example, above, author Barbara Bourland is using my headshots on her website and other promotion materials. She recently released the book "I'll Eat When I'm Dead."
