Hey guys, I’ve got a question.
My partial has been in the hands of an agent for two weeks.
I understand that I should not email to check. I’m told that to do so will mark me an amateur. I also have heard that partials generally take two weeks before you hear something.
I’m going nuts. How long should I wait? Forever? What if she never gets back to me? What if she thinks it stunk or forgot or lost my email?
Is there any definite stance on checking in? Two weeks? Two months? Two years? Two centuries?
Also, what’s so bad about being seen as an amateur? I am an amateur. This is my first try. If I’m polite, respectful and honest, would it be tragic to simply ask after two weeks how “things are going”?
Sorry for this silly question, but I’m going insane.
