Partial Requested

[Madison]

An agent requested to see the first part of my manuscript. The communication is via email. Do I need to send a cover letter with this? If so, what would this entail?

Thanks!

Dear <agents name>:

Here are the first X pages of my manuscript, <name of manuscript> as per your request.

Thank you for your consideration. Sincerely,


<Your name>

A very brief cover letter with the partial is appropriate. Just something like, "As requested, here are the first 3 chapters of 'Dead, And Loving it.' I look forward to your response," or some such, signed, Hopeful Author.
