I met Jenny Bent in Atlanta at an AWC Conference. She requested my full and after MUCH rewriting, she took me on as a client. She had an offer on my debut novel, The Pocket Wife, within hours of taking it on. She is professional and knowledgeable and edits meticulously. She is extremely sought-after, however, and there are lengthy gaps between reads. If you don't hear back from her right away, nudge her but know you're not alone.

#PitMad request 3/24
Query sent 3/25
Full request: 4/2 (submitted same day).
Rejection: 5/16

The rejection gave wonderfully specific compliments as well as the reasons why she passed. Very useful!

80k suspense. She'd passed on an earlier version of this project, as well.

Kensi, I'm sad she hasn't responded to your nudges. She still has my fulll since Sept too. Firt nudge got a kind response but I just sent a second and its been 2 weeks with no reply so I may be in the same boat!
