Hi everyone. I started sending out queries approximately 3 months ago for my completed manuscript. Within that time I've had a request for 2 partials, have had several (more) writers critique the piece, and have opted to do a complete rewrite of the first chapter. The plot and everything else remains the same, I just wanted to add a bit more intrigue and action - and tighten up the plot.
I have a query out with an agency, along with the first chapter (per their submission guidelines). Said agent responded with an email saying that she received it, and will review it and respond.
There has been no response, so I can only thing that she has not yet read it. Obviously I'd much rather she read the new version of the first chapter, but what do I do now? Do I email her and ask if I can send the new version? Do I just do it anyway? Do I wait for a response and then ask if I can resubmit? Or am I just plain screwed and chalk it up to being an idiot and not having edited this in the first place??!
