Hi! Folks who have sent a full to Alice in the last few months, did you receive a confirmation of receipt from her, or did you just go by the automatic message from her email or the online form?

Thanks!

FQ 9/7/2019 (#Pitmad request)
ER 9/10/2019 (not right for her list, which didn't surprise me too much given her preferences listed on MSWL, but figured worth a shot given the #Pitmad like).

@thephrygian, sorry to hear that--as much as we talk about earning our stripes via rejections, it doesn't make it any easier, especially when you were in limbo for so long. :( At least it's a clear answer rather than a lingering question mark, I guess. Good luck with your other queries!

Thanks for the tip, Kristen, but check the dates. I've been waiting for over a year.

@ moxleyhood: I did nudge a couple times, via Twitter (when she's closed to queries, the emails bounce). As recently as a few days ago, which ultimately resulted in a rejection today.

@thephrygian, have you nudged her about your full? You probably have, but if not, you should. :) Historical mystery/adventure sounds cool!

Congrats, the Phrygian! You have to wait 3-6 months for a full's response time. Read her sub guidelines. Wait until August to nudge her and keep querying. Plus, that word count is too high too!

Form rejection letter. And ten days shy of a year? Do yourselves a favor and don’t query.
