Nikki requested a partial at RWA in July. I submitted it as she requested on 8/8/2018. I followed up on 11/8/2018 and her assistant indicated Nikki was still evaluating and I would hear something "in the next two weeks". Another follow up on 12/4 and 12/11 and on 12/12 I heard from her assistant again simply saying Nikki is still evaluating it. 126 days and counting.

Got a #PitMad like by Nikki and sent her my query on 6/8/18, got no response after 60 days so I closed it out as CNR, but yesterday I got a form rejection by Alese Gwinn. So 142 days.

Yea, this one is entirely my fault, and the fact that they even put my name on the form is better than I did XD I think I was sick or something doing this one, because I actually forgot to change my placeholder for her name.

*scrolls through comments* Ahhhh this was the one that I got asked to redo with the author bio. No wonder. Meh, not fussed about this one too much tbh.

10/20: Email from submission coordinator Alese Gwinn asking me to resend query with author bio (forgot to copy paste *smacks forehead*). Very quick response and very considerate. She could have just deleted it. Tells me this is a personable agency.

Met her at Killer Nashville conference. Very personable and provided great feedback on the opening pages during a roundtable read. Had great advice on the agent panel as well.

"Thank you for your submission.
Your work has been carefully reviewed by the agent you queried, and it has been determined that Holloway Literary will not be pursuing representation of your manuscript. We regret sending you this information in a form letter; however, due to the volume of emails we receive daily it is almost impossible to send customized letters to every author. Thank you again for thinking of Holloway Literary, and we wish you every success in your writing career."
