Author bios and "About the Author" are limited to a 2,500 word maximum. This is approximately one single spaced typed page in 11 pt font and will be about 475 words. You must have one Author bio that meets these limitations for your Amazon Author Page. Your "About the Author" in the actual book has no word limitations, but it is a good practice to say things in fewer rather than more words.
