How the Author Bio Builder Works

The builder opens with your name and what you write, then adds your credentials and achievements, then a personal touch, and ends with where to find you. Longer versions include more of your answers and the short version keeps only the strongest.

It uses only what you enter, so facts you leave out never appear. Edit the result so it sounds like you.

Things to Know Before You Rely on the Result

  • Only claim what is true and can be checked, such as awards, degrees and publications.
  • Match the tone to the book. A thriller writer and a financial adviser need different voices.
  • Update your bio when you publish something new.

Author Bio Builder FAQs

How long should an author bio be?

Keep a short version of 25 to 50 words for retailer pages, and a longer one of 100 to 150 for your website and press kit.

Should I write my bio in third person?

Third person is the standard for book pages and press kits. First person suits a personal website or newsletter.

What if I have no credentials?

Write about why you wrote the book and what you know from living it. Honest and specific beats impressive and vague.
