Kind form rejection. I was sad though as Hannah seems amazing to work with.

I get that you're "busy" but if you requests someone's full and they take the time out of their day to send it to you, the least thing you can do is just say "it wasn't for me" or "it's a pass." It's amazing how some agents want so much respect yet don't give it. Remember, if it weren't for writers, you wouldn't have a job.

The agency say they aim to read and respond to all fulls within 30 days of receiving. After waiting over a year with several nudges to Hannah Sheppard after she requested my full back in 2019, I had to close the query. Seriously, though, over a year? I sent her about 3-4 nudges. She was my first ever full request and I was so disheartened by the whole experience.

Hannah represents authors across children’s fiction (from 9+ including teen and YA) and a small number of adult fiction authors (her main interests are thrillers and romance). Hannah does not? represent picture books.
