Query Letters and That Pesky Bio Paragraph

If you've done any research into writing query letters, you've probably read that you need (1) a hook, (2) a mini-synopsis, and (3) a paragraph about you. I see a lot of confusion about what to put in that bio paragraph. Hopefully we can clear that up here.



(NOTE: This is specifically for fiction queries. In non-fiction queries, the bio paragraph is a lot more important).



RULE #1: If you're not sure what to write about yourself, write:

Thank you for your time and consideration.

And NOTHING...
