If you have a 7 page prologue, and an agent requests the first 3 chapters, for example, should you count the prologue as one of those chapters, or send the prologue + the first 3 chapters?
In my novel I'm shopping to agents, the prologue is important for the story but not absolutely critical. So if 3 chapters is firm, should I leave out the prologue and send the first 3 chapters, or the prologue and first 2 chapters?
