Yes, I met him through a friend who has a three-book deal with him. We talked with him many times throughout the conference. Very nice. Very personable. I would be honored. Thanks for all your help! IF I get a book deal with him, I will definitely let the agents, who I queried, know.

Thank you. He is an author/illustrator, himself, and an editor at a publisher. So maybe he is kind to another writer?

What if...what if you met an editor at a conference, sent your manuscript, and you get an email back saying he loves it. Loves your story, loves your character, and thinks others will, too. He gives you pointers on how to make the ending more Ah-ha! and asks if you would like to revise. Then what if he asks if you would like him to show your manuscript to his colleagues, or would you like to revise it first?

IF he comes back with an offer, should you email agents you've queried and let them know? Or, should you wing it on your own?
