It's been a while since I queried, but I'm wondering if anyone else also has this experience atm — several agents who jumped over themselves to review my last mss, even the arguably bad ones, are either CNRs or ghosting entirely. I used to have responses the same week...I last queried I think 3 years ago. Anyone else also experiencing this? I assume everyone's now too busy ...?

Got a full request last April and just received a pass today—it's been nearly a year (344 days) but Genevieve had lovely feedback, both positive thoughts and constructive critique. So it was worth the wait, especially when so many passes these days come as forms or ghosts/CNRs!
