Sharpening question

Hi, I'm relatively new to the licensing aspect of business, and I was contacted by a publisher who wants to use my photos as part of a 6 page photo essay for a magazine. The sizes will range 2x3 to full page bleed. I store my originals as lightly sharpened tiffs. When sending the photos to the publisher should I just send the originals as tfff/jpg? Or should I resize smaller and then resharpen to a file size more consistent with what will be published? Thanks so much.

I'd query the publisher, or better yet the editor, Chris. Most are very specific about what they want, or at least their GA's are.
