As a writer who occasionally gets published in journals and anthologies, I get asked for an "author's bio," usually with a limit of 50 or 100 words. I have a few things that I include but always feel like I could write a better bio. Writing credits, social media links, personal info (like "married and lives in...") The only one I'm really sure about is the writing credits. Are there any standards, guidelines or suggestions as to what should and should not be in a short author bio?
