The dreaded bio

My publisher just asked what I wanted for my bio in the back of The Wrong Side of Magic (Assuming that’s what Feiwell keeps the original title.) I always get a personality crisis whenever anybody asks me that.


Who am I? How am I supposed to put anything meaningful in a few sentences? I always want to write something like:


Janette Rallison rocks. No really, she’s awesome. And she is totally not writing this bio herself. Everybody believes she’s awesome. You should buy all her books.


At other times I want to write something more abstract like: Janette Rallison doesn’t have the patience for chess, wears white after labor day, and has never seen the intrinsic value of most modern art. She always routes for the prey during nature videos. Sometimes trips over air molecules.


I mean, after 23 books, what is there to say?


Sigh.

mary Ethington You are so funny! I love reading even your short sentences! I would go with the first one for sure! No one would think you wrote it. :)

Cindy Either one is fun to read. Maybe one of your family members would write it for you. That could potentially be horrifying or hilarious.

Janette With my kids, it would most likely be horrifying.
