I always receive replies from Jason Yarn. One pass arrived same day, and one request arrived around the 8-week mark. I didn't send the request because I was rewriting based on agent suggestions, and I wasn't comfortable sending him work I no longer had confidence in, but he was awesome. I wouldn't cross him off if he doesn't reply instantly.

Polite step aside: 5/18/18

Jason's step aside was very personal and polite! He said that he was on the fence about the manuscript (much to enjoy, but there were some big things he'd want to change) and therefore didn't feel as though he could champion it as well as someone who has already fallen in love with it.

Jason is an interesting agent, because he responds immediately if he's interested, but he's not as responsive afterwards as some other agents I've corresponded with. That said, when he did respond, it was thorough and lovely. I think if you're looking for someone who is a little more hands-off in their agenting, but still very invested in the work, Jason might be your dude.

Seems to only reply if interested and he's quick. It's been 8 weeks, so guessing it's a no.
