I've read well-selling, popular books with good stories that have typos I catch on the first page. Don't sweat it right now.
I was so embarrassed by the number of typos and missing words I found in my ms after I got my agent, but she never even saw them. She was more focused on the storytelling to notice, so that's when I realized how diligent I need to be when proofreading.
So two days ago I received a phone call from an agent saying that they wanted to look at my entire manuscript.
Does the fact that an agent called mean that it's all right for you to call and apologize for the typos etc they're going to find?
