The Pose-Off, It Is On!
You’ve all no doubt been following developments in the pose-off challenge/fundraiser between Jim C. Hines and John Scalzi, wherein Jim Hines challenged John Scalzi to pose in the manner typical of female protagonists on the cover of science fiction and fantasy novels. Well, after the choosing of a cover, the pose-off is complete. I think you’ll all agree that Jim nailed the pose, right down to the tilt of the shoulders and the improbable leg positioning. But John really did create a pose to haunt the dreams. Also, as a cyclist I have to say he has surprisingly good legs.
