8/25 DR - Thank you for including me in your agent queries. Unfortunately, your project does not sound like a fit for me at this time, and so I will have to pass. I wish you all the best in your endeavor.

Asked Laura on Twitter today if she was considering submissions from prior to the switch over to Head water, and she confirmed that she is very behind and that she is still considering these submissions.

Curious, has anyone gotten a response even after seven months? I have CNR'd my query MONTHS ago but sometimes I wonder if I should have found a way to nudge or something but regardless, I've moved on already.

EDIT: Thank you @phoebeross for the encouraging words to everyone still waiting!

UPDATE 8/13: Received a form rejection after 276 days.

Form Rejection Aug 2020

I had given that old novel up as a CNR and queried her with my new YA fantasy 6/5 of this year. Got an offer of representation from another agent yesterday (8/4) & let her know. She just asked to read the full to see if she wants to counter offer!!! So for my new novel:

Dang, my Full was on 8/15/2019 which was like a month before she moved to HW... I'm starting to think mine got lost.
