Question
I got a partial request on Feb 10. But since then, I've gotten some agent feedback and decided to revise the first three chapters. The work is stronger now, so I was wondering if it would be okay to email the agent, tell her I've updated my first three chapters and ask if she'd like it.
Does anyone have any experience with this sort of thing? I mean, I'd hate it if she were to reject the partial even though it's the old version. Then again I don't want to seem unprofessional since technically your supposed to send your best work out in the first place. At the same time, sometimes you think you're sending out your best work but after you start querying actual agents and get some feedback you realize there's more you could have done.
Anyway, what should I do?
