Hi [redacted]
I also wanted to make a quick correction to my previous message, as I noticed that I accidentally included an incorrect agency/profile link. I’m sorry about that. It was simply a mistake on my part when putting the information together, and I completely understand why that could have added to your concerns.
Please disregard the links in my previous email. I would rather correct the mistake openly than leave you with any confusion about the information I provided.
I also want to reiterate that I completely understand your caution. You were right to ask questions, especially when someone approaches you unexpectedly about your writing. Please take whatever time you need to verify my professional details independently before deciding whether you feel comfortable continuing our conversation.
There is absolutely no pressure from my side to send your manuscript or any further material until you are satisfied that everything is clear.
Thank you for understanding, [redacted], and apologies again for the confusion caused by the incorrect link.
Warm regards,
Ciara McEllin
