Profile Update: Changed agencies. Formerly with Liza Dawson Associates.

(Thanks RebeccaDSivori. Though her Twitter now says she is an assistant, so I don't know if that means she is accepting queries directly.)

Response stated that while my novel would be a project she would ordinarily be interested in, she is taking a pause on taking on new projects at the moment. She said she would pass, "for now" and wished me luck on gaining representation. She encouraged me to resubmit when she reopens for queries with this project if still unrepresented or another project that I may be working on in the future.
