Emailed memoir query and proposal in March 2019. Surprised not to receive a response. Maybe it was a good think b/c according to publisher's marketplace at the time, she had not sold any relevant projects in 7 yrs.

Not taking any fiction now (I've worked with her, as an editor, in the past) - in her words, it is tough out there.

Quick and kind rejection: Brittany,

Thanks so much for writing me. Unfortunately I’ve decided not to pursue this project. I have a great many new proposals coming in, and I must often say no to wonderful books. I regret I’ll have to pass.

I wish you the best in your writing journey.
Best,

Rachelle

Website says she accepts "occasional" YA, so genres need a bit of an update https://www.booksandsuch.com/our-agents/meet-rachelle/
