Here's a great piece about facing up to the dreaded contributor bio request:
“Giles Turnbull is a freelance writer based in Bradford on Avon, England. He has a web site at gilest.org. He has written for the BBC, The Guardian, The Daily Telegraph, MacUser, O’Reilly Publishing, and many others.”
Oh, please. “And many others?” Who am I trying to fool with that sort of weasely rubbish? Of course there have been others, but not many, and most of them were years ago. Some of them have gone bust. A lot of the stuff I wrote in the past is stuff I would rather forget.
