One should always keep one's queries to a minimum, or one looks like a needy, high-maintenance pest - an especially bad impression to leave someone with when they're trying to decide if they want to work with you long term.

I am a professor of religious studies, and the author of several books on the Bible and theology. I grew up in New York, Virginia, and New Mexico. I attended St. John's College, Annapolis, MD (BA, 1988), Harvard Divinity School (MTS, 1990), and the University of Notre Dame (PhD, 1995). I live in upstate New York with my wife and two wonderful kids.
Starting in 2006, I had one of those strange midlife things, and turned my analysis towards horror films and literature. I have written
Gospel of the Living Dead: George Romero's Visions of Hell on Earth (Baylor, 2006) - WINNER, 2006 Bram Stoker Award;
Dying to Live: A Novel of Life among the Undead (Permuted Press, 2007);
Orpheus and the Pearl(Magus Press, 2008); and
Dying to Live: Life Sentence(Permuted Press, 2008).

Is that considered a no-no in the industry? Would that actually hurt you, or is it considered bad form?

Thanks. They should put your paragraph on the front page of match.com.
Tenterhooks. I know. Augh! The waiting. The "I don't want to be a pest ... BUT!" anxiety. Hang in there, Doc!
Oh, and hey, pop over to my LJ if you want to see how I scored on the Dante test ... I'm pretty hellbound all right!
Almost one week...
Resolve fading...
Perhaps I could say that my email's been acting up and I was just concerned that perhaps I'd missed an email?
That seems to be the "default" excuse nowadays. Of course, it's all so transparent...
