Jim Hines and Book Covers

I thought this was lovely. Go Jim Hines for your experimental attitude and your willingness to step into other peoples' (high heeled) shoes.

Hilarious.

LOL! Jim Hines is a real sport!
Of course it's no wonder that a middle-aged male can't duplicate the flexibility of an early 20's female (as the illustrations seem to all portray), but a guy who will give it "the ol' college try" is major-league flexible in his sense of humour!

If you read to the end, he links to a PROFESSIONAL CONTORTIONIST who can't do many of the "standard action cover" poses.

So there's that.
