EQ: 1/12
Rejection: 3/1 (after two nudges, the last being an offer of rep):

Hi [redacted],

I hope all is well, and thanks so much for keeping me in the loop. Congratulations on the representation offer! That's fabulous news and so well deserved.

Thanks for your patience as well as I considered [title redacted]. I love a good [redacted] story and this one delivers such hilarious moments! Since I don't feel quite as strongly about this project as its champion should, I'm going to bow out so you can move forward with your other offer. Thank you for giving me a shot with your story - and again, congratulations! I'm looking forward to seeing your stories on bookshelves someday soon.

Wolfangel4788, there is a place on QueryManager where you can leave the agent a message. There are three options: nudge with offer, withdraw submission, and a general message (probably separated for priority). I left a general message to nudge and she was fairly prompt in replying.

How do you give an agent a nudge after doing an online form?

11/6, a rejection on the full. Her email was very kind and said what she liked about the manuscript but didn’t have the vision to find it a publisher. Disappointing, as she seems a lovely person to work with.
Full request on 10/7 (!!!) after a nudge on 10/5

Rejection (personalized) - 10/27/20

Subbed to Katherine after she made a pass on the last secret agent contest on Miss Snark's First Victim blog. Rejection was super kind, stated she remembered my submission, loved the changes, but ultimately didn't connect strongly enough. I'll take it as a win.
