If I felt like this was a firm offer of representation from an agent who has read the entire MS, I think it would be appropriate to stop sending out new queries at this point. The communication I'm getting, however, is nebulous.
I sent a full on request to this agent about 2 weeks ago. She responded this evening saying she was 100 pages in and loving it, and would like to talk about representation with the strong implication that it was on the condition I be willing to make moderate cuts/revisions.
Does standard industry courtesy dictate I stop sending out queries until I've had a full conversation with her? Is it weird to hear back from an agent in the positive before they've even finished the story?
For context, this appears to be a new associate agent at a well-regarded agency.
Thanks for any insight.
