    This video was very helpful. I'm trying to come up with an author bio at the moment. I was wondering, where should the author bio go in a children's book? I'm not sure if I should put it on the last page of my book or on the back cover. Picture books are short and I don't remember seeing an author bio on the back covers of other children's books.

      I'm so happy to hear you've found the video helpful! In the end, where we place our author bio is completely up to us. I went ahead and copied a link to one of my other videos that will hopefully help you make a decision: ua-cam.com/video/O1xGBUo00rM/v-deo.html

    Thanks Eevi🙏
    I love that you said we don’t have to have just one bio.
    I think I’ve hit all your marks, but maybe it’s too long.
    Since I’m looking to get sponsors for my first picture book, I’ll now write another bio geared to that objective.
    Perhaps I should set up a website where I can include more info.
    Thanks again. Always such good stuff.

    I am in the process of getting my very first book published. I love your videos! When you mention putting the author bio inside your book, where would that be placed? I don't really see author bios on the back cover so I don't think I want it there.

    • @EeviJones
      @EeviJones  8 місяців тому

      Hi Tonya! Thanks so much for your kind words. I usually put my author bio toward the back. I went ahead and copied a link to one of my videos that shares the best order within our books. I so hope this helps! ua-cam.com/video/O1xGBUo00rM/v-deo.html

    Hello Eevi. Wondering, should you only put a bio on the right hand side in the back pages, or can it go on the left hand side in the back pages?

    • @EeviJones
      @EeviJones  Рік тому +1

      Hi Jan! You can put your author bio on either side. And if you have watched one of my other recent videos on review requests, I would go ahead and add the author bio BEFORE such a request. I so hope this helps!

    I agree with what you said about presenting or having different bios for different platforms/audiences. One hat doesn't fit all.
