Gail Carriger's fill-in-the-blank author bio:

[Name/Pseudonym] lives in [City] where she pretends to be a [pithy comment on boring day job] when she would rather be writing. She spends her free time [standard hobby] and [less standard hobby]. She also likes to [quirky and slightly off base skill – like fencing or black belt in some martial art]. She lives with a [tolerant, saintly, long-suffering] husband/wife/partner and two [witty descriptor] [cats/children] and a [dog/garden].

Tante Helga lives in Dream's Realm where she pretends to be a fairy and really does magic so that she actually has time to write. How she does that will always remain a fairy secret. (No not again a Barbie movie reference, what the heck is wrong with me?) In her free time she curses while doing stuff for discrete math. A subject she absolutely loves to hate. Or hates to love. Depending on the perspective. She also likes physics even though she sucks at it. She lives with a baby dragon who never sleeps and now realizes it is a reference to a novel she has been working on for years. It is the rule of 4 and 7, or so they say. Asked about it she wouldn't comment instead she burst out laughing like the crazy person she actually is.
