In my design class, I was assigned to take a book that I enjoyed and create a movie poster for it.  The catch was, it couldn't already be adapted into a film.  No problem.  I immediately knew what book to select: Like a Hole in the Head by Jen Banbury.  Sadly, it's out of print, but you can pick up a copy online for really cheap.

In order to successfully complete the assignment, I needed to meet certain criteria.  I won't go into the details, because I like you and would rather not bore you to death.  All you needed to know is that I met the criteria- but before I did, I knew I couldn't make this too easy for me.  What to do?  I knew I wanted an image of the story's protagonist, Jill, on the poster.  So one would assume I needed a photo of a woman, right?  Nah...I'll just photograph me in a wig and do my best to "transform" my photo into that of a woman.  Now, you can be the judge and decide if you think I succeeded.  At the very least, I think I made myself a little more attractive.



A note to the author of Like a Hole in the Head:  Jen, if you've stumbled upon my blog whilst Googling your name (admit it, we've all done it): Please, please write more fiction.  As far as I know, Like a Hole in the Head is your only novel, and I love it dearly.  Heck, I liked it enough to wear a silly wig for you...that has to mean something.
