Rejection: 23rd Feb 2021
Loveliest rejection of my life, would have queried simply for that rejection. Echoing the others below!

Agent Tweeted apologetically 12/19/2020 that he's caught up with all 2020 submissions, and "I’m very sorry but no response = a pass." Closed out, categorized as rejection.
He also added a note for SFF writers! I recommend checking out his feed. He seems so nice! Congratulations to everyone who caught his eye.

Rejection on 12/11
Jon's rejection email was probably the nicest rejection email I've ever read. He was incredibly thoughtful and had a lot of positive things to say about my work before getting into why it wasn't the best fit for him. He wasn't on my radar for querying prior to PitMad, but now he's 1000% on my list for my next book if I don't get rep with the current one.

#PitMad Request: 9/6/2020
FR: 9/8/2020
Unfortunately, we were in the direct path of Hurricane Sally and are still waiting for the return of our internet (doing all this from my spotty cell service on my phone). Informed him of the technological issues and he said that was more than fine and he would wait. Will update this when I am back up and running and able to send out fulls again.
Sent: 6/1
NICEST full request I have ever seen: 6/22
sent revised book: 9/3. He replied the same day saying he hoped to read by the beginning of November.

He seems incredibly kind, prompt, and professional. I highly recommend querying him.
