Have queried my novella to 4 epubs so far, and got my first response back this morning, an R+R
The editor had some very kind words about my style, and some encouraging suggestions, but I'm not sure how to proceed. I think I definitely need to reply and ask for clarification on the things she said needed work, but I'm just not sure how to word it.
So my question is this: would it be frowned upon to send a revised snippet (a few paragraphs) of the piece that she saw (first 20 pages), and ask if I'm headed in the direction she had in mind? Or do I just revise the entire novella before resubmitting?
Thanks in advance, and any other advice you have on how to handle these situations is helpful, as I'm a noob to the process!
