Daniel Lavery was the co-founder of the Internet sensation The Toast and an advice columnist for Slate. His books include the novel Women's Hotel and the bestselling humor collection Texts from Jane Eyre. In this 2025 installment of his Substack newsletter The Chatner, he makes an engaging case for keeping your author bios and readings mercifully brief, prioritizing book description over back-cover blurbs, and getting invited to Australia whenever possible.
