I also received a partial request to send via snail mail.
Not a very helpful ER a few days later.

He should at least read 1 or 2 pages via email before asking authors to print out and mail 50 pages which he then rejects because of the writing. One or two pages would have easily enabled him to ascertain his dislike of the writing, and it would be less costly/time consuming for the author. Especially in these days of the pandemic making the post office visit so much more difficult.

I got a partial request (50 pages) after 3 days. As other writers also remarked, he asked me to snail mail him the material. Now: fingers crossed :)

He requested a partial via snail mail a few hours after receiving my query and sent me a brief and personalized rejection a few days after receiving my materials. I appreciated his swift and direct communication style, and I recommend querying him (especially if your book fits within his areas of interest).

I've heard he's not the most aggressive agent, but he is very quick, good with his queries, and he sells books. My interactions with him were great. I say he's worth querying.

Submitted a query letter as requested instead of files. Received a short letter of thanks for submission the next day saying the story did not resonate with him.

He requests partials by snail mail. Old school!

Partial Request: 10/29/19 (snail-mailed-at his request-1st 50 pages)
Sent apology on 12/23/19 for not getting back sooner on the pages I sent and said he'd be in touch soon
ER: 1/6/20 super nice rejection with encouragement to resubmit if I revised the manuscript so it's stronger for the marketplace

Such a nice guy!
