I received this response today (12/11/2022) when I tried to query. I queried since I saw that query tracker main page had updated to open to queries and publishers marketplace also stated she was open. Either she is only open to requests/referral material or the email notification was left on.
Hello,
I am currently closed to unsolicited queries. You should feel more than welcome to send your project to one of my colleagues or, when I reopen, you can re-send your work to me. But please note, if you were not referred by a children's/YA editor, a client that I already represent, or are querying based a request from myself or Laura Gruszka from Twitter pitch, then the query I just received has been deleted.
In addition, please note that you may only send to one Writers House agent at any given time.
Best wishes,
Rebecca

I assume this is a form rejection?
Thank you so much for your query. While Rebecca found your concept to be engaging, she doesn’t feel your work is quite right for her. Due to a very full client list, she needs to be especially selective about pursuing new projects.
Someone else may have an extremely different approach that better fits your needs and is better suited to you and your work. Please do feel welcome to submit to another agent at Writers House, if you so choose. Agency policy asks that queriers only query one Writers House agent at a time; once that agent has responded, you’re welcome to submit to another agent at Writers House.
We hope you find the right advocate for your projects. Thank you again for thinking of Rebecca, and we wish you the best of luck in finding representation.
