@mushenska @mollykh Do you expect subs to be perfect or so you take rougher diamonds (not spelling/grammar but overall) if the story/voice grabs you? #askagentI do a lot of editorial work with some of my clients. If the voice and/or story grab me, it's hard for me to resist. #askagent

@mushenska Hi! Do you ever take authors on with an unfinished MS - or is that a rare and risky gamble? What would make you take that chance? #askagentI don't think I've ever taken on a debut author with an unfinished ms. I need to know they know how to finish it! #askagent
