What credits are worth mentioning?

Post by ryanznock » February 20th, 2010, 9:01 pm

I'm trying to pitch a modern fantasy novel in which online video games play a major component. I don't have any print fiction credits, but a Dungeons & Dragons website is paying me to publish another fantasy novel of mine as a monthly column (www.enworld.org), and I have written two dozen role-playing game products that have been published (some in print, most online) by several different game companies.

I'm curious what if any of that is worth mentioning in a query. I do have at least a modest online community familiar with my work, though it's in the gaming field more than fiction. What do you think?

I don't know much about the fantasy genre, even less about video games, but your writing credits sound very relevant and, assuming they're from reputable companies, I'd mention them for sure.

I think if money came your way as a result of your writing, you should mention it. Sounds good to me.
