I've been sending out query letters and requested material to agents who request e-mail submissions only. Since e-mail converts my double spacing to single spacing, I decided (a little late) to look through the Absolute Write threads about formatting e-mails. There I was reminded that material pasted directly from my Word Perfect documents to e-mails will probably arrive at the other end scrambled--that I should have converted the documents to RTF files. I knew--and forgot that!
What would you suggest at this point:
An e-mail to each agent, admitting there are times when I could use a brain transplant, and resubmitting the material from rtf files;
Hope the files weren't too scrambled and wait to hear from them;
Write the submissions off and continue sending to new agents, using rtf files;
Any other option you can think of (since I obviously can't always trust my own brain to come up with the right information. . .)
