Greetings from the #BOC.
Today we have the incomparable cover model, Len Gunn.
I had the great pleasure of first meeting Len in person back in 2013 at the RT Convention in Kansas City and since then, Len has even joined the Book Obsessed Chicks on Long Island for our annual event, where he will be this July as well.
With his height and his great personality, Len Gunn definitely stands out in the crowd. Not only is he a great cover model who graces the covers of many of today's great reads, he is a hard working man who runs his own business and a wonderful single father to a teen aged son. I am very proud to call him friend. I hope you enjoy our little quickfire spotlight and please feel free to leaves questions or comments for Len

ReplyDeleteI was surprised at the number of books I have with Len on the cover. I look forward to meeting him at my first ever BOC BBQ
ReplyDeleteI'd love to know if authors get star-struck when they meet the cover models that grace the cover of their newest story. I know I probably would be. Covers are just one reason that I still love to read a paperback as apposed to an e-book. With a paperback, you can look at the cover any time you want to.
