So, I have had three really great agents offer revision recommendations for the manuscript I'm currently pushing querying. One of them invited me to requery her with the revisions (Woo!) and I've already started tearing the puppy apart.
My problem is, I'm still getting requests for the full manuscript from other agents I've queried. Should I respond to the requests saying that I am in the middle of some agent recommended revisions and ask if I can send it when I'm finished? I don't want to give the impression that I was querying an unpolished project because, in my mind at the time, I wasn't. Or, should I send the old ms (which I now realize could be SOOO much better)? Or should I just keep quiet and send them the manuscript when I'm finished the revisions (which may take a while)?
Any thoughts would be great! Thanks!
