*Received an email stating if no news after 12 weeks, then it's a rejection.
FR: 5/26/21; sent on the same day (came 10 mins later! Definitely the fastest request... ever.) She did ask who else was considering the full in her email.
ER: 6/3/21: This was a really nice rejection. It was extremely personalized. She literally sang my praises and then said she had to pass because she wanted the pacing to be a bit faster. She said that real life is often paced the way I wrote but she likes her fiction faster but has no doubt that my story will get picked up.
Soooo... we keep pressing forward. :) Onward!
