Email query: 05/25/2021 (Western/Action/Adventure/Historical)
Request for full manuscript: 05/28/2021
Email submission: 05/28/2021
Email rejection: 06/08/2021 -- Mr. de Spoelberch's reply was both gracious and encouraging, saying he regretted he didn't think he would be my novel's best agent advocate. He gave a suggestion for improvement, for which I am grateful.

Got a very prompt request to read the manuscript, delay due to internet outages (though actually, it didn't seem too delayed to me), and then a very kind, very flattering rejection. Sadly, my MS was on the same topic as another he's repping. But he was very kind and very encouraging, and I was grateful for his professionalism.

July 12 - phone call with interest and revision notes, but no official offer of representation
July 15 - informal email agreement to move forward but no mention of contract
Aug 11 - phone call discussing final revisions and contract to be sent, so now I guess it's finally official! (I will truly celebrate once I sign the contract though) (:

He is very prompt, kind, and professional in his replies - note his internet has been down for over a week now so he is behind in all his emails.

Good luck to everyone out there; it only takes one agent. Remember good work gets rejected all the time and persistence is often the ultimate deciding factor for success - keep going!
