Submitted in March 2017. Closing out with no response in June 2017. I'm sad to do this because she and I had an awesome rapport when she was at Elizabeth Kaplan and I was excited to send her my new MS. Perhaps I queried too soon on this or my idea isn't as hooky as I'd hoped.

Reading down this comment thread I see a dispute on Melissa's surname, but no clarification. Erin Harris, on her PM page, calls her colleague Melissa White, and on the Folio site, if you hover on Melissa's photo, she's Melissa White. So for anyone still in doubt, it's "Ms. White".
