I sent out the first four chapters to about six different publishers. Within three days I received a no from one. On the ninth day, I got a request for additional chapters from another publisher. Is that a good sign? They didn't ask from the entire manuscript which concerned me but the first chapters had to spark an interest if they asked for more right? I'm so nervous!

I'd consider it a good sign.

After one publisher said, "no," someone else apparently found your work more interesting. So they answered "maybe," instead of "no," and asked for more chapters to help make a decision.
