Hi, Valeria,<br /><br />Here is the query--I need to tell you that I think you should trust in the process a bit more. It's hard to say without offense; please know that none is intended. If I edit a piece and offer to look at it a second time, it's just to make sure that everything is in place, not for extensive changes to be made, which requires a whole new edit, basically.<br /><br />Please know that you are not alone--most authors write and rewrite and rewrite again, and this is totally okay! However, it can get to a point where you are just spinning your wheels and rehashing so much that you'll drive yourself crazy. Trust in the process&nbsp;and trust in my expertise.&nbsp;If you send me a query letter, I rework it to be the best it can be to request representation for your book. It is different from a proposal, and each query to each agent might need to be tweaked a bit, but the basic format should be consistent. If you make changes that turn the letter into something like a proposal, we have to start from the beginning.&nbsp;<br /><br />It's hard, because each time you look at your text you think of new ideas, and that's good. But at some point you have to say, OK--I need to polish what I have and submit it. That's where I come in. I am the polisher. The free second edit is to make sure everything I have already done is perfect, not to start from scratch with a new doc. Does this make sense? Keep in mind that once I polish the text you DO have, it is going to go through a real back-and-forth with the editors of your publishing house, and you and they will decide on major changes at that point. I'm just the person who's getting you ready for submission.<br /><br />Please let me know if this makes sense, and please know that I just want to help you put your great ideas into a form that can be presented to the publishing industry.<br /><br />Thanks, Valeria.<br /><br />Laura
