Who Else Wants To Read 11 Best Bios On Medium?
The usual bios are dead, but you don’t know it yet.
It was love at first sight.
I was scrolling through the list of writers on Medium when I saw it. I opened my Medium app before I even got out of bed —the act I regret and appreciate doing to this day.
Something happened that instantly made my heart pound so fast I thought it was beeping, not beating. I roamed the rest of the day obsessed with one single thought.
There is a genious among us.
Aside from realizing I was just a regular everyday normal human animal, I knew immediately what I saw was the greatest bio ever written on Medium. Written by another author clearly sucking source code from the universe directly.
“Typing…”
And that’s it — “Typing” was the description.
It’s perfect. It’s literally a one word description of what that person’s doing on Medium.
I had spent hours and hours trying to write the description that checked all the boxes. All whilst there was someone who wrote one word and unintentionally spilled urine on all of my efforts. (excuse my language)
“The most valuable of all talents is that of never using two words when one will do.”
— Thomas Jefferson
The worst thing?
I forgot who it was and never found the author… The reason why I put Charleses face on the header 🙃
Anyways, here is how I pay my respects. By giving shoutouts to everyone who lives close by this realm.
Anneke Campbell
I’ve been writing so long I’m almost finished with my memoir of the Holocaust
It could as well have been Anneke who wrote “typing…” because this is jaw-dropping. (Anneke you are an inspiration, please write more on Medium.)
Bee Koroknai
Think before you think. Then write it down. Read that again. Ducks are my Rihanna
The surprisingly surprising description begging you to click on the profile.
Matthew MacLennan
A recovering narcissist. I want to see your eyes and face your questions. — SSS Fin
Quotes are always interesting. Matthew knows this and uses a raw truth to get your attention.
Ivy the Ginger Ninja
BSc (Psych), DipFamHist. I am a NINJA! (Or so I’ve been told, and they can’t take it back now, I’ve already had t-shirts made)
If you don’t know, now you know!
Yolanda Reischer Bohanec
Slovenian-Mexican American. Born in Guadalajara. Raised in California. Living in Austria. Translator, writer & educator
Yolanda is your polyglot of choice.
Sasha K
Small, brown, cat cuddler with a ridiculously long surname
Don’t you want to know the surname?
Jules Radloff
For now, Jules is what I need him to be. A pen named character that can speak my mind while my boss isn’t looking. I prefer smart people over pretty ones
What version would you like to meet first?
Antonello Zanini
Technology Bishop 🙏 | Software Engineer 💻 | Technical Writer ✒️ | Hire me
Here is to all the classical bios! Clean, sharp, easy to understand (except for the bishop part), and actionable.
Michael McKean
I use my background in psychology to create tales of weird fiction and romance-gone-wrong
If Freud was a bit more creative and less analytical, he would be called Michael.
TANUJA boduggam
Learn..unlearn
TANUJA is an embodiment of Shō Shin.
