Additional questions in Post #4
I'm getting ready to start querying agents perhaps in another two weeks. I have a few questions.
1. For agents who request sample pages, do I include these in the same format as the main email: with space breaks between paragraphs and minus the indents?
2. What happens if an agent I'm less interested in gives me an offer of representation before other agents I'm more keen on have responded? How long can I put the agent on hold?
3. Question 2 makes me wonder if I should start querying the top agents first or less favorite ones.
4. Is it better to get an agent who reps top-selling books or one that's working their way up (and may thus work harder for your book)?
Thanks in advance!
