Here's a question, though I'm not sure if this is the thread to pose it :
I self-published a book back in 2005, and recently removed it from the POD publisher (discontinued). I was told it would follow suit that the book's ISBN would then be removed from Ingram's listing, though I do still find the title on Barnes & Noble, Borders and Amazon's sites in full color (yikes!). Their sites state it's available, but if anyone tried to order it back to the POD publisher, it would quickly be revealed as "discontinued".
The manuscript has been rewritten and revised, heavily. However, it retains the same title.
All right, the question:
I queried this book to 30 literary agents, and within 7 days, received not only 3 requests for partials, and two for fulls, but now have an offer of representation. I feel a need to tell the agent who's placed the offer, of this manuscript's previous sad and limited shelf-life as a POD. I'm sure the agent would make that discovery, especially when they shop it around. Further, should I suggest a title revision, to avoid any mess created by a skeptical publishing house?
Anyone?
