I sent out my latest batch of agent queries just a few days ago, but today I received an offer of representation from an agency that requested a full some time ago (I'd marked them off as non-responders!). I'd like to give the other agents a chance to read my ms, but telling them I've had an offer just two days after I queried seems pushy. Should I tell them anyway? The agency that offered isn't my first choice, having made deals mainly with digital publishers. I submitted to them because this is a re-release and my chances are slim with the big guys for this book. However, they do mention editor contacts they'd pitch to at three or four Big Five publishers, so if the others don't bite I will probably sign with them (after phone convo and due diligence on their contract, of course).
Any insights? Thanks!
