I've participated in 4 twitter pitch events so far and gotten some interest. The book I was pitching was an older one, the first in a series. There's a second one nearly finished, and a third is plotted. All are older works I finished 7 years ago but haven't worked on since (I had other things going on in my life.) To tell you the truth, I did it as a lark, as practice. I haven't written up an official query for the book yet.
I am wondering now if it's too soon. The book was as polished as I could make it back then, which was considerable and professional (I have a background in technical writing) but I haven't re-read it in a while. Doing another go-round would be very time consuming. I really want to just format it and put it out there and see what interest it gets in its present state, but don't want to shoot myself in the foot regarding chances with an agent.
It's been a month since the first interest and a few days after the second round.
Advice?
