Richard: Only a half dozen? Yes, you need various versions. Just be sure to give the bios good document names: Bio-3 para.doc, Bio-100words.doc, etc. Then they’ll be easy to find. I have all of mine in a folder called Vitas.

It seems everyone wants something different — half page, one paragraph, etc. To me the requests are for extremely short bios. What’s the point in that? I must have at least half a dozen incarnations floating around on my hard drive.

I think I need to revisit my Artist bio soon The most difficult thing to do is write about yourself… Great way to start! Thank you so much, Alyson!

Alyson goes into more detail about this in her book, IRBITS, and with that as guidance I composed both an Artist Statement and a bio (both on my About page) which I am proud of. Come see them at http://vener-art.com/about.html

As many times as I’ve written my bio it just never gets easier. This bare bones formula is awesome!!
