Queried: 9-26
Rejected an hour later

Email Query: 21/09/22 - 81K YA Fairytale retelling
Rejection: A super kind pass a few minutes later. (Not for him, but good luck.)

Really refreshing to get a response right away! :)

I resubmitted today after 14 days. But I won't do it again.
It might be gmail acting up but it also might just be a rejection!

edit to add: i received the confirmation email this time! It was found in spam and I really DID NOT get it it last time! so gmail is funky I guess.

CLOSING THIS ONE!

@SadieJL @ DeeJay8

I have also recently queried without receiving a confirmation response (gmail as well) and it says on their website that if you haven't heard a response in two weeks then they haven't received the query. So, I would wait two weeks then send again. I'm not sure what needs to be done in order to receive that confirmation though.

@DeeJay8 - Thanks for your response. I checked and I did not receive one in my spam.
Since a lot of people use Gmail. I imagine some of them have to be going through? :S

edit to add: is September 15th the date that he gave to other querying authors as the 'deadline' for his reply? Thanks!

Same problem (gmail) - haven't received a confirmation. Any ideas how to over come this? thanks

I haven't gotten any confirmation email so I assume my query is going into spam--any advice on how to make this not so, so I can resend?

My confirmation email said he would respond by May 19 if interested.

Auto response:

Dear querying writer: It's summer and some of that will be actual vacation time for me, and consequently other times will be "catch up time." Unfortunately, that means I will be unable to personally respond to all queries until September 12, 2022. If you have not heard back from me by September 15, 2022, I am not interested in your project, but I wish you all the best with it and thank you for thinking of me.
Additionally, I will be completely unavailable between August 12- August 28. During that time, for all other messages, such as emergencies or requiring an immediate response, please contact Brent Taylor OR Laura Crockett.

@jimjomjamie thank you for posting that. I never got any receipt email (Gmail, btw), including the nudge. At 40 days I'm writing it off as a CNR and/or email gremlin incident.
