Several agents I want to query have stated they want the first 10 pages of my manuscript with the query. My entire first chapter is 11 and a little less than a 1/2 pages. Since it's so close to the 10 page request, should I go ahead and attach the full chapter, letting the agents know that's it's a bit over, or cut the chapter off at 10? If I changed my paragraph spacing (some sentences are on lines by themselves because I like the way it flows) I would easily have 10. Is it more important to be at exactly 10 pages or for the story to read the way I think it reads best? Thoughts? Thanks in advance!
