5/7: a kind note from assistant Claire that said while I was "clearly a talented writer" they hadn't connected with it quite as much as they'd hoped and invited me to submit something in the future.

They seem lovely. Their clients are lucky.

Onward. :)

I'm really impressed by what I'm reading about Catherine Drayton, but I just stumbled on the information that she "recently returned to Sydney, Australia where she will continue to work as an associate of InkWell with the aim of helping Australian publishers and agents sell their authors’ books in the United States." I've poked around the internet, but I can't determine if she accepts queries from U.S. writers. Does anyone know?

AuthorGGRyn: I queried on 1/22 and haven't heard anything either. Looking at the timeline of queries, it appears she isn't taking the queries in order. The way I look at it, as long as I haven't gotten a rejection there is still hope.

Update: Form rejection received today after 21 days. Oh well. On to the next agent.
