My agent mostly communicates with me through email. She sends me updates and sometimes forwards individual responses from publishers, which have so far been rejections. These rejections are simple and no more than one line long. I don’t know if I should reply to those. I don’t want my agent to think I’m ignoring her or don’t appreciate the forwards, but I really don’t know what to say. But if I don’t acknowledge that I’ve received her email then there is no communication from my end.
I actually responded to an email saying something like “I can’t wait to hear more” and I cringe just thinking about it. It’s too short and tacky but I wanted her to know that I’m reading her emails. So, how much am I suppose to communicate with an agent? Does she expect me to reply to every forward? I don’t want to be rude but I don’t know how to reply when my agent forwards me an email from a publisher that says no more than “thanks but we’ll pass.”
