This took more than 4 weeks, so maybe she's just running a bit over the time frame listed.

betty_d, I did when she had my query in March. She ended up sending a rejection about a week later, but it was really nice. I didn't feel like it bothered her that I nudged.

It's been 28 days with no response to my EQ. The website says to resend if no response received after 3 weeks, but it pains me to nudge on a query.

Anyone else nudge recently?

4/5/17 Resent since no answer after 3 weeks.
ER: She said she thought my query & sample were well written with a strong concept, just not exactly what she's looking for. One of the most encouraging rejections I've seen.

ER: 25 days after EQ - Very positive, personalized email which made we wonder if she sat on the query for a while thinking. That was good in my opinion. I'd rather an agent take their time and not request a full, instead of get an author's hope up with something they weren't ready to invested in. I was very thankful for the email. It's one of those rejection keepers. :D

The rejection email seemed personalized and was both polite & encouraging. She seems lovely!

Form rejection on full request from Sun vs Snow. I have to say getting a form rejection on this particular full request surprised me since she requested off the query and first page from the contest. I sort of expected a line or two of personalization, stating she had read the pages. But, shrugging it off and moving on.

update - i received an email today from her assistant, apologizing for the form rejection. She said it was a mix-up in their inbox and that she was sending my email onto Ms. Burby. She asked me to ignore the rejection and wait for Ms. Burby's reply.
