So, is it uncouth to follow up a query letter to an agent with an update to my credentials?

I don’t mean to nudge because I know that’s annoying, but to add a piece of new information about me that may be of interest?

The Monsters Among Us has a 4.7 rating! Same as Joe Hill’s excellent new book! Just saying, in case you want another great read after reading his. 😅

Angry at the rising threat of fascism and Christian nationalism? Want a book that offers a biting critique of both of those things?

I have you covered:

It’s #FridayReads time! Let’s boost all signals. Repost this and let us know what to repost for you. I’m sharing this one because it’s very timely, helped me land an agent, was a Stoker nominee, was published in France and Italy, and it’s 30% off!

I write fiction, as well as writing about storytelling, and how narrative works within culture in different ways. Right now, everything on my Patreon is free, though that will be changing in the next few months.
