2/15 Full requested from Writing in the Margins Contest
3/11- asked if I'd had any interest and that she had some notes for me if I was interested. Revise and Resubmit?

PB sent on 31 Dec 2015, response today ` mar 2016
I am glad to receive a response and not sure if it is a form rejection but it was nice to think this was just for my MS.

I took a look at your manuscript and while inventive and so enjoyable, it’s not what I’m looking for at the moment.

Good luck as you pursue representation elsewhere.

Full ms sub 5/14 (client referral)
Confirmed receipt the next day, but no word since then, even after a status query a few months later. Going to consider this one closed even though it's on a full, since over a year has passed with no response.

Tricia won my full manuscript through Baker's Dozen 2013. Submitted 12/4 and she confirmed receipt 12/5.
Follow up 1/12/15, she asked for the revised full I had offered.

11/4/14 Submitted HF PB through online form after meeting Ms. Lawrence at the Iowa SCBWI conference The automatic reply says they normally respond in 7-10 days.

The saga continues:

- Partial sent (requested from Daisy Carter's pitch contest) 7/3/12
- Full requested/sent 3/1/13
- Revise & Resubmit requested 4/5/13
- Revision sent 6/4/13
- Gentle nudge (with mention in PS of a new completed ms) sent 1/7/14
- Request for full of new ms 1/7/14

Both the R&R and the new full are now in her TBR pile. My takeaway is that if you have something with Tricia, be very patient, and don't give up hope.

She's been really nice and lovely the whole way, and the feedback she gave me on the R&R was spot on.

Submitted PB on 4/20 through conference/workshop connection
Request for more PBs/MG on 7/13 (eep!!)

I would give her another 2 months, since you know she's behind, and then nudge

Is anyone else out there still waiting on a response from a Baker's Dozen contest request? She's had my full for six months now and I'm trying to decide if I should nudge or if this is a normal turn-around time for her. I read below that she was running behind and responses were slow so I don't want to seem impatient if this wait is normal.

Per Ryxander's comment, it looks like her/his partial was requested via a blog contest, not a query.

The Erin Murphy agency is really good about requesting materials off of contests

It looks like the entire agency is not open to unsolicited queries. Do you mind if I ask how you got your query to her?

If you've had a partial or full with Tricia for a while, don't give up! I just heard back from her with a full request after she had my partial for 8 months. Sounds like she fell behind in 2012 and is catching up now.

- Partial requested from Daisy Carter's blog contest
- Partial sent 7/3/12
- Full requested 3/1/13

She did say she's making an effort to turn around faster in 2013, so here's hoping any of you who've been waiting get good news soon!

Hi guys:) Just an update, I said I would post this in agent comments where I had requests/offers. I signed today with Sarah Davies of The Greenhouse Literary Agency! I'm very excited, even though the decision was difficult because it's really hard to reject the other agents who spent so much time reading and telling me they loved my story. I didn't anticipate how sad that would make me, really. Anyway, the best of luck to all of you! I've been on QT I think since it started. Three of these offering agents rejected a past query, so never give up! This is the best place to be if you are querying, so thanks Patrick!

thanks hester! :)
