Suggestions or Tips on Author's Questionnaire for Publisher
Hi,
The publisher of my self help book, coming out next year, sent me an author's questionnaire to fill out for book promotion purposes. Does anyone have experience with this? Especially I wonder about the one paragraph bio. What do I include in that?
Thank you!

Thank you, Persia. I'm not sure if this bio is for the back of the book. I think it's for media distribution and is supposed to provoke interest for interviews. I'm wondering just how personal or revealing I need to be. Include hobbies? travels? personal relationships?

The bio's for the back of the book. Usually it includes information about your degrees, professional experience, any previous writing credits and also a line about where you live. Pick up any one of your favorite authors, flip to the back of the book and you'll see various versions of the ubiquitous "author's bio."
