I met Jim in a UCLA writers studio course. Very nice fellow. Form rejection after asking for my full quickly. Oh well. As someone else noted on this thread, he says he does literary fiction, but he's never taken one on.

Thanks so much for sending THE BIRDS IN BLUE SKYE along. Unfortunately, I'm going to be passing at this time.



I’m sorry this wasn’t a match. While I found much to admire here, I wasn't ultimately convinced I would be the best possible advocate for this project.



Thank you again, sincerely, for the chance to take a look. I wish you all the best with this project.

Possibly worth noting that while he accepts submissions of literary fiction, from reviewing the list of offers of representation made recorded on QT, it doesn't look like he's ever actually taken one on.

He confirmed he would read fast and get back to me soon
Polite ER 4/15/21, saying he liked it but wasn't sure who he'd sell it to. Seems like a really nice guy, super on top of things!

Was about to send a kind nudge just now since the comments below indicate how quick he typically is and I hadn't heard back yet, only to realize I miswrote his email address, so of course he didn't see it, duh-doy.

To chime in with gautambhati1988, I asked if I could send in a revised document if my full was still in the queue and he responded quickly and in the affirmative. He seems super down-to-earth and approachable.
