FR: 3/16 (my first full request!)
Full MS sent: 3/16
Full MS rejection: 5/3
Kendyll, Marisa’s intern (now agent apprentice) gave me a good amount of detail in her feedback regarding my full manuscript. She had a lot of nice things to say overall, but didn’t connect with the love interest, so ultimately passed. She urged me to revise and continue querying. Despite how hard this one hit, I appreciated her feedback.

1/31/22 - full request from Emma Konn (22-year-old "apprentice"). Submitted thinking Marisa Corvisiero would be involved since I queried her.
4/18/22 - rejection from Emma Konn letting me know she didn't connect with my protagonist enough to champion the novel, a link to how to be a better fiction writer, and recommending I send it through betas.
I didn't even query her, I queried Marisa Corvisiero. I would have said no thanks if Emma Konn was the agent asking to represent me because I was diligent about who I queried and she was not on my list. I wish Emma had her own QM because I would have loved feedback from an agent with experience in this business.

Thanks for the info. I had an Offer of Rep from Nikki Terpilowski but because I was away from phone reception for a few days, I missed the deadline to request an autosignable Agreement in time, and her assistant rescinded the Offer. I've been fine-tuning my NF Proposal since then.
Congratulations on your full requests! Regarding a nudge on a full, you should wait 3-4 months. There are some agents that will specify if you should nudge them sooner, but in general it's better to give them time. Good Luck!
I received a request for a full manuscript 4 months ago from Maggie Sadler, Marisa's apprentice. It's now been rejected, but Maggie gave thoughtful, detailed feedback in two areas I can improve. Maggie seems to have good communication skills.

One of the nicest form rejections I've seen so far. Her assistant does a nice job.
