| I wish more people would do their bios on Writing.com. You don't have to be detailed or reveal personal secrets. You don't need to jeopardize your security. But it helps if you want other people to review your work. For instance, a story by an eighth grader might get a gentler review than someone with a PhD. Or someone who hasn't written since high school, but is recording his life now that he's retiring from a long life of auto mechanics, might need general steering more than grammar. English as a second language is a good tip, too. A good bio would tell us what stage of life the author is in presently. It might also tell us the person has some expertise in the subject matter or is just guessing. The point is that our reviews could be more helpful, maybe gentler, if we knew more about the writer. We don't need to know a lot of personal stuff. Maybe for Party Central, we could encourage everyone who hasn't set up a bio to make a quick stab at it. Just put some general guidelines down, Happy writing. |
