@RL6788 and @SaraCo, I'm, being a writer, good at imagining things, making them up! So, I imagine an assistant going through the queries and rejecting them. When the assistant is intrigued, said assistant passes it on to the agent, who takes time to read them. Thus rejections end up moving faster than a request for partial/full. Of course, said agent can finally get to it and reject it anyways. Does make up for a good story and gives you hope, right?

RL6788 My query isn't as old as yours, but I'm also noticing people around me getting responses. But it looks like yours has been out two months. Maybe send her an email to check in? Or resend the query and include a note at the end of the letter saying you queried and never got a response?
