![🔥question of the day: What do authors wear? #authorsofinstagram #authorsofinsta
Here are my answers… Thanks for interviewing me, @apparelforauthors!
Posted @withregram • @apparelforauthors ✨Jennifer J. Chow✨
What are you wearing to virtual or in-person events?
I like to wear themed clothing. For example, for my co-launch event with Deanna Raybourn for Mimi Lee Gets A Clue, I wore a special patterned dress. At first glance, it looks like abstract colors put together. On closer inspection, you can tell that the shapes are silhouettes of cats. I chose this theme because my recent series (the Sassy Cat Mysteries) feature a talking snarky cat, Marshmallow, who teams up with Los Angeles pet groomer Mimi Lee to solve murder cases.
How does your identity intersect with the way you dress?
In one of my favorite author photos, I’m wearing a cheongsam. I use this outfit only on special occasions because I adore the vibrant red color and the intricate floral design. The dress connects me to my heritage, which is helpful when I’m writing Asian American main characters.
As an aside, I also stock up on inspirational attire. I have this one Nancy Drew shirt that I wear for fun to show my passion for reading (and writing) mysteries.
Any outfit fails, regrets, and/or mishaps?
For virtual events, I learned the hard way to wear shirts with higher necklines. In the beginning, I wore whatever I wanted. Once during an online session, I realized that it looked like I didn’t have a shirt on—whoops!
Jennifer J. Chow [link in bio] is the Lefty Award-nominated author of the Sassy Cat Mysteries. The first in the series, Mimi Lee Gets A Clue, was selected as an Overdrive Recommended Read, a PopSugar’s Best Summer Beach Read, and one of BuzzFeed’s Top 5 Books by AAPI authors. Her next novel, Mimi Lee Cracks the Code, is one of BookRiot's Best Upcoming Cozy Mysteries for the Second Half of 2021.
