Well, you are super awesome. As for bios, it depends on what you're writing it for, partly because that sets the tone of voice, and because then you know what people might be interested in about you. And also, word limits matter. But something like "Cleolinda Jones is a mild-mannered [grad, right?] student by day, studying [insert whatever you study]. She's also one of livejournal.com's most popular bloggers and the author of Movies in Fifteen Minutes. Cleolinda lives with her family in Alabama, from whence she manages to take over the world, one laugh at a time." for a book jacket/pamphlet thingy. Not that there's not more about you to tell, because you are an interesting person, but that's all that random strangers need to know if they're wondering "Who's this random chick who wrote this book".
