EQ: 3/9 w/ Picture Book
ER: 3/9 (3 hours after submission)

Queried with a picture book that was professionally critiqued and edited over several months and has already been requested by a publisher. Had really great feedback on it, and high hopes.

He responded right away saying that he liked the mood of my story. Pointed out a specific part of two. Said it would lend itself well to illustration. However, he felt the very opening was a bit "protracted" and recommended where in the beginning of the story I should cut a few lines. Didn't sound like anything major in terms of dislikes. Didn't even officially pass on me or the project in his wording. Just thanked me for submitting. But obviously safe to assume he did.

It looks like he mostly doesn't respond anymore. I queried about 12 weeks ago, and checked in when I didn't hear anything, but never received a response.

ETA: This was a post-conference query
