**Biographies keeps artist CVs in one place, so a line is updated once and is correct everywhere it appears.**

## Writing a biography

Each artist has a short bio and a structured CV. Add categories and lines, and reorder them by dragging or with the arrow keys. You decide per line what appears on your website, so an internal note can sit alongside a public exhibition history without leaking.

## Pasting an existing CV

You can paste a whole CV at once and WrkLst reads the years and ranges out of it, rather than making you retype it line by line.

## Publishing

Biographies can be exported as documents or synchronised with your website through the WordPress plugin or a custom integration — see [WordPress Plugin and REST API](/hc/wrklst-docs/articles/1786371811-word_press-plugin-and-rest-api). This is what makes the single-source-of-truth idea work: your website, your PDFs and your Word documents all derive from the same version.
