Re-sent query via manager/form: 7/19/2020
Rejected: 12/10/2020; she apologized for the delay and said it was due to having a similar novel that she was already working through. She said she would see if Lizzie Poteet was still interested, as she had rejected my query because it was still in Julie's inbox.
12/30/2020: Julie e-mailed me asking me for the full synopsis, presumably to sent on to Lizzie however that was not specified.
Submitted first 6 chapters on 11/19/20
Full Request on 12/18/20, submitted on 12/20/20
She and her assistant, Madison, invited me to send them my query and first 5-6 chapters, along with blurbs for the planned sequels and a synopsis. Both Julie and Madison were lovely and very easy to talk with.

As others have experienced, Julie gave specific feedback on her reasons for rejection, which I deeply appreciated. She seemed like a wonderful professional; I will definitely submit other projects to her.
Rejected 12/15 2020. said my word count was too short (71k) but if I were to "beef it up to around 80k" she'd be willing to take another look at it.
Rejected 12/15/2020, note mentioned that my word count was too long and to resubmit if I shortened it, but did not provide a target word count.

She was super nice and I met her intern Elle as well. Requested a partial, which I sent 11/7. We also talked about various ways I imagined the book turning into a series. She seems lovely and I'm hoping it works out!
Rejection: 10/11/20
An actual rejection that I don't feel was a form rejection. Nothing construction but did let me know she was passing because she had something similar already.
