Is it better to write a book in third person or write it as a biography? How hard is it to market a biography as apposed to a book in third person?

I don't think it's a case of one or the other being easier to market. People read books because of the topic, as well as the skill of the writer. The best thing to do is start writing. You will find that one style will come more easily to you than the other. That's the one to choose.
