Looked at her Timeline and saw that she was requesting for Fulls and Partials from queries made after mine.

Status is listed as closed to queries. However, on MSWL she is not. Also seems a few people here have queried recently.

Said pretty much the same thing as someone else here mentioned - she complimented my writing, but said she didn't love it as much as she'd hoped but wasn't sure why it wasn't working for her, said she'd like an autographed copy one day, etc.

I will say though she was very efficient in her communication and seems like a very lovely woman.

Meredith had requested the partial by mail. Since I am in Shanghai I have asked my sister to help send it to her. Meredith has been extremely cordial in our correspondence.

Meredith just came back declining to move further with an encouraging message and invitation to query with future projects. Thus far, I have found most agents to be like her, highly thoughtful and personable even as they rip your heart out. ;-)

"Thank you so much for the opportunity to read your material and to be introduced to the many vicissitudes of your life.

I can see that you have put a lot of energy into the thinking behind this project and while I find it nicely written--I'm just not as taken with it as I would want to be. In all honesty, I'm not quite sure why it isn't "working" for me but that is just the subjective nature of my work .

That said, of course--you need an agent that will help you to develop, hone, publish and market this project with the appropriate ardor.

I have a good feeling someone will make this fly and I hope you'll send me an autographed copy one day!

On the off chance that you do not connect with another agent, and have something else to show in the future--I would welcome a query.

In the interim, I do hope another agent finds just the right house wherein to place your book!

Do take care!

Best,

Meredith"
