Interview with Lance Jones Book Cover & Tattooed Model

Okay we all know that old adage the ‘Never Judge a Book by its Cover’ is so hard to do, but we are all guilty. Lately book covers have been popping up with so many beautiful cover models from live shots and not just stock photos. But have you stopped to wonder about those models who work tirelessly with the photographers to give us these amazing covers we adore wrapped around the books we love? They play a huge role in the book industry and with that said Read Between The Lines and The Book Quarry will be collaborating together to bring readers closer to these models. We will be interviewing our favorite models bi-weekly (This will start once we get everything hashed out. Right now we are just showing you a sneak peek as to what it will be like). The interviews will be different on each blog and they will be in-depth questions asked of each model. The first interview is with Lance Jones and both pages will have the same interview posted, but hereafter it will be as stated above. We will select a couple of reader’s questions that are left in the comments of each post so the more participation the better(one question from each blog) for future interviews to post on our blogs, but you have to read the interviews to find out whose question was picked.

So Let's Get This Interview Going.

Lance Jones

First I would like to say thank you Lance for taking time out of your busy schedule to talk with us. To get things started off can you tell us a little bit about yourself?

Your welcome, hmm that's a tough question because there is, a lot to answer lol

What came first the Cover Modeling or the Tattoo Modeling? Or did they kind of run in conjunction together?

They kinda ran conjunction together but I was modeling for a couple months before I got on my first cover. 

How many book covers are you on? Do you read the books when you get time?

I don't read them but I'm probably on over 100 now , probably have published.  I lost count

I'm not a big reader , it makes me more tired. 

What was it like the first time you were asked to be on a cover?

I was surprised and excited,  thought it was a joke at first lol

What was your first tattoo, and for many tattoos represent something significant in their lives do yours? Do you plan on getting more?

My first tattoo was my last name that is now covered up,  my tattoos are just things I like nothing really to significant,  other than my cursed love in my chest which is my first book cover  I was ever on.
