"Thank you for the opportunity to consider your query. I sincerely apologize for the delay in my reply; I try to stay on top of my query box but I am afraid that sometimes the volume of submissions makes it difficult to give a timely response to everyone who submits to me.
This sounds very interesting—I'd be happy to look at the first 15 pages of THE FOREBEAR CHRONICLES, if it's still available. You may also send a 1-2 page synopsis. If you could send the pages as a Word Doc / PDF, I would appreciate it.
Thanks, and I look forward to reading your work. "
