Got a rejection in 24 hours saying they don't represent memoir, so maybe time for a genre update :)

Very personable and encouraging when I met with her at a conference encouraging me to submit to her. When I did I received a one sentence form letter in response which was disappointing; no recognition that she'd expressed interest or even remembered me.

How long do you wait before nudging an agent who requested a proposal? Should I even bother asking (since a no-response is pretty much as good as a rejection, right)?

Queried last night, got a response this morning. Said she likes my idea and will read my proposal on Monday.
