Good suggestions, people, thanks.

I need to do the same thing for my !@#$ business website. I feel like writing "Ginger has made a living writing and editing words in a row for 30 years. If she was bad at it, she'd be a Walmart greeter by now."

No shit. Nobody reads them all that often, either.

Because books.
I hate writing bios. Mine are always completely lame. I usually wind up listing dumb jobs I've had, like a million other people.

We should probably all write each other's bio.

No Ginger should write everyone's bio. And we can all collaborate to writer hers.

Writing bios suck. My sympathies, erika.

Good luck, erika.
I'm still struggling along with making a synopsis. It's getting better, but still not there. Still too bullet-point-ish and not enough story-ish if you take my meaning.

I'm just glad to know I'm not the only person to feel like a dork when writing about her life.

Here's what I came up with...thanks again.
Ever since being born in Riverside, CA(her mother calls it "California's weirdest town,"even before that), in the early seventies, Erika Jahneke has done her best to chronicle the weird and wonderful about life as she sees it.Writer and blogger of both fiction and journalism(at least until that consultant slot at Leverage and Associates opens up), Erika writes about politics, pop culture, and why good people occasionally do bad things and sometimes get away with it.She lives in Phoenix, obsesses about Baltimore, and dreams of San Francisco. She is moderately hard at work on researching her first novel. For the third time. Also, attempting to master screenwriting software. Flames, love letters, and "Countdown" booking requests can be sent to ejahneke@yahoo.com, where they will be screened by her security Jack Russell. Spelling counts!
