@JustinJoseph, when to nudge is always a question! I usually do it somewhere in the three- to six-month range when agents don't give a specific length of time. As for whether she's requested materials lately, have you looked at her Timeline? You can click on the faces to find out when she rejected or requested materials. I find it very helpful. https://querytracker.net/timeline.php?agent=2755

Thanks, story711

@JustinJoseph I just looked at her timeline. Although she has skipped a few, she seems to go in order of receipt. And yesterday, she finished reviewing 9/7 queries. You're next. Good luck!

Thank you for sending me your manuscript. I apologize for taking so long to review the material and I really appreciate your patience with me. I am incredibly behind. I really like the writing of your sample (and would probably look at the full if I were not SO behind already). My big worry is that the voice feels a bit older than YA, possibly because one of the narrators is centuries old. I'd love to look at anything else you have, though!

6/30/22 - emailed her to let her know I received an R&R from another agent and if she would like to wait to get the revised version in August. She responded saying she hadn't gotten to mine yet and would like to see the revised.
7/13/22 - sent a personalized rejection before I had a chance to send the revised R&R version...c'est la vie.

Thank you so much for considering Keyes Agency in your search for representation. I appreciate you giving me the opportunity to review your work. Unfortunately, as I am just one person, I can only take on a few projects and I don't think this one is right for me. However, I wish you the best luck in your search for the right agent and hope everything works out as it should.

Best,
Emily S. Keyes
