Assignment

In working on queries, it becomes necessary to write perhaps the hardest piece of homework I have ever had to do: my bio. What can I possibly find to say, to justify my presumption in writing a book at all? What about me is relevant or interesting to an agent, to the publishing industry itself?

I can think of all sorts of ways I could be used in marketing. I have no shortage of confidence in my work, my subject. And, as we all know, I am vain as a veiny thing that's sitting on a weathervane.

But good grief. What on earth is there to put in a bio ... ???
