Requested a partial
Hello all,
I'm a newbie here, and don't mean to do more of the "same old, same old." However, I'm relying on all of your combined experience to guide me, since I'm not as wise to the ways of the agent world as you all are.
I got a request for a partial (50 pages, bio, and full synopsis) from Jacky a few days ago. Needless to say, I was very excited and sent the materials ASAP. (All via email attachment, as per her instructions.) All the research I've done on Jacky and on BookEnds has resulted in very positive reviews.
My big question is how long should I wait before inquiring as to the status of my submission? I know full mss readings can take a long time, but I don't know the protocol for shorter submissions. I don't want to offend, but don't want to seem uninterested either.
Would a follow-up be appropriate, or would three or four days after submission be too soon?
Sorry for the newbie question. I'm angst-ridden. Sigh.
