Creating a Good Bio

Every author/writer should have a professional bio. There is no need to hire someone to do it for you. You can do it yourself. All you need are the tools to create one and to know exactly what your bio should include.


First, your bio should include what you have done as a writer and how long you've been writing.


Second, your bio should include all the books you have written, well at least the last 3 or most popular. What awards you've won, contests you've been in or places you've published.


Third, your bio should include any business info such as the names of the companies you own. (Be brief. Give only the names of the companies and a one line description of what they offer.)


Last, it should briefly say where you live, if you're married, have any pets, children, hobbies, etc. Give your readers a brief description of what and who you are outside of writing.
