Wow, there was a lot of life happening this week. That and a cough that won't go away kept me from finishing anything for this week. I shouldn't say I didn't finish anything, I did come up with a two sentence bio for the Bas Bleu reading on September 30.
Have you ever tried to write a two sentence bio for yourself? I recommend it if you have not. It is at once aggravating and invigorating. You, of course, have to take your audience into consideration. We all wear so many different hats that one could write any number of two sentence bios and have them be a good fit. In this particular incidence, I want to convey quickly to the folks that I will be reading to a little bit about myself and the type of writing they can expect from me.
This is where I landed:
Josh is an attorney by trade, a husband and father at heart, and a renowned writer in his dreams. While he likes any genre well written, he holds a torch for fantasy and science fiction.
I am calling it a MicroBio. Try it out. I've shown you mine, feel free to show me yours.
By the way, the reading for which I wrote my MicroBio is put on by the Northern Colorado Writers and is hosted by the Bas Bleu theater in Fort Collins. Tickets are $5 and it is a two hour event (7-9PM). Eight different readers will be reading from their original works spanning all manner of genres. Where else can you find such affordable quality entertainment?
Hope to see you there.
