Crossdressing Ninja in Pom(egranate) Tree

These are from our entry for [info]jaylake's contest for the release of Green, which will be funnier if you look at the book's cover. (Pomegranates are out of season.)

[info]kehrli had the idea (and bought Pom).
[info]criada scouted the location (and bought Pom).
[info]kaerfel provided supplies (and bought Pom).
And [info]csinman dressed in drag and dangled by his bare feet from a tree (and also bought Pom).

The lengths to which you all will go for your art is staggering. I am in awe...

[info]csinman

June 11 2009, 04:39:40 UTC 2 years ago

That's even more incentive to get a novel out, Karen, so we can do silly stunts to mock/emulate/revere your cover art!

You guys, you're... something. [giggling]

I'm not sure WHAT, but something, Definitely something.

I'll tell you what we were... we were totally shown up by the other photographer/model operation going on in Elizabeth Park. There was some kind of quite accomplished acrobat in a cute stripey outfit doing all kinds of amazing tricks on some scarves. Her bones must have been made of Swedish fish, or perhaps she was half eel. It was amazing!

Woot!

And a cute green queen you are, too! Lovely!

Re: Woot!

Hehe, thank you!

Ow. OWWW. The awesome.... it huuuuuurts me.

(And--by golly--I'd better see you with blue hair and a corset in July. *G*)

When I first saw you in person... I remarked to the person sitting next to me, "Total anime character, but like, in real life."

My comment stands the test of time.

You are my hero, even in drag.

[info]csinman

June 11 2009, 07:01:30 UTC 2 years ago

Jeff, I have to preface this by swearing that I'm notorious for my sieve-like memory, but I was pretty sure I still hadn't met you. When were we in the same place at the same time?

Why, thank you. That's certainly incentive to do it more often...

I really needed to see this after the day I've had. :D

Thank you...I think.

dangled by his bare feet from a tree

Those are knees, not feet! And now I'm disappointed. I was looking forward to some prehensile toes.

[info]csinman

June 11 2009, 15:28:15 UTC 2 years ago

If I get anything prehensile, I want it to be a tail!

Also, my feet argue with you. They say they were definitely the point of my body which my weight was hanging from, especially the scraped up left foot. I told them they couldn't have done it without my knees being bent over the limbs, but they're self-centered.

Off now to change my shorts.

[info]csinman

June 11 2009, 15:43:39 UTC 2 years ago

I hope you don't plan on washing the money out, Scholes. Do you have any idea what signed, fluid-soaked articles of your clothing are going to bring on the fannish black market in the next few years? I personally witnessed a certain other popular fantasy author's tie-dyed socks bringing in scads of cash at a charity auction.

This is fantastic. The attention to non-terminal-digit-related detail is crazy impressive.

[info]csinman

June 11 2009, 15:47:52 UTC 2 years ago

Thank you! We were actually going by the cover alone--if I'd known she had extra toes we would have done something about that, too.

June 11 2009, 15:46:13 UTC 2 years ago

This one was certainly more elaborate than the Mainspring zeppelin.

I'm pretty sure I'll make the news with my screaming, inside-out-organs death when [info]blackaire has a cover with someone battling a demon, and we decide it's a good idea to conjure one for the photoshoot.

Not only are these pictures totally awesome, they also make me want to run out and buy the book.

Also also I thought about drinking pom for a few seconds, but then I decided I'd rather have tea.

[info]jaylake

Ironically, there was a real acrobat girl dangling from the next tree over. For real.

The girls knew that you were a ninja before even getting a chance for me to scroll up to the heading.
Would this book be age appropriate for the girls? just asking.
Also I would love some gorgeous green hair! curse you and your boyish ways making my heart all gleefull I hope you are happy with yourself.

[info]pussinboots

I haven't read it, but I don't think so--I think the main character is a courtesan. XD

He has a great book called Rocket Science that, if memory serves me correctly, would be age appropriate, and would probably be you-and-Bill appropriate too, because it's hilarious. But I haven't read it in about three years, so you should check it first.
