Thanks @survivorextraordinaire and good luck! (Also just FYI I moved my status from here to Ben's own page now that he has one, since I queried him from the get-go.)

@amkade I queried Courtney in late July, nudged in November, and then received a full request from Ben 11/14. He let me know this week that he should be finished with the full two weeks from now

@survivorextraordinaire - Cool, thanks. I guess let me know, if you feel comfortable, if you find anything out. Ha I'm trying to find you in Courtney's timeline... When did he request your full/how long has it been? He just requested for me a day or two ago.

I’m wondering the same thing, amkade (he requested my full and I logged it through Courtney’s page as well). I figure if he offers it’s something I could ask both him and Courtney

Does anyone have insights on Ben Miller-Callihan? I am assuming that he is operating largely as her mentee and that she is quite involved in his client management, but info would be appreciated. He's not on QT in his own right so FWIW I logged my submission to him through her page.

Not necessarily in Courtney's normal wheelhouse, but she represents a good friend of mine and has expressed interest in my work. We'll see how it goes!

8/2/19 EQ - RWA Conference Request

**I met Courtney in person and she was the kindest person ever. She was excited about my story and had these little pride flags set up on her table so you knew she was LGBT friendly (which is great because I was pitching a f/f book!)**
