Where do you find this agents MSWL? Or she does not have one? I read on here she does NOT accept email queries? It's really hard to pin down what she does/doesn't want?

Long, winding road for this one. Amy's assistant Genevieve (and Writers House in-house editor) liked my PitMad pitch in September. She requested the full, and then requested I do a technical edit before she'd consider sharing it with any agents. She asked that I start with the first 50 pages, and made it clear it was not an exclusive R&R. I turned the 50 pages around in a week, then she requested the revised full shortly after. Two months later, she said Amy is passing and gave detailed feedback on why. It's disappointing, of course BUT, working with Genevieve made my MS so much stronger. Her feedback is invaluable. I'm thankful for the experience.

Not sure if form.

"Thank you very much for sending your query for BOOK NAME to Amy Berkower, and for your patience while we considered it.
Amy appreciated the opportunity to review your project, but unfortunately she is unable to offer representation at this time. Despite the many virtues of your work, it doesn’t feel like a fit for her list.
Please remember that this is only one opinion in a highly subjective business and another agency may feel differently. Good luck in finding representation, and thank you for thinking of Writers House."

Here's my timeline (touches on the below comments, too):

Queried - 1/22/18
Full request - 1/22/18
Exclusive R&R offer from Genevieve (In-House Editor at WH and Amy's associate) - 1/29/18
*I had six other fulls out, so needed time to figure out how to handle that - took two weeks and then accepted the exclusive*
Notes from Genevieve received (less than two weeks after accepting exclusive - very quick!) - 2/28
Revision sent back - 6/12
Note from Genevieve saying she loved it and is going to show it to Amy / if Amy passes, am I okay with her showing to other agents at WH (to which I replied: yes, of course!) - 7/31
Note from Genevieve saying Amy passed but she had shown it to Andrea Morrison and she was VERY interested - 8/6
SIGNED WITH ANDREA - 8/7/18

A couple things:

a) If you are offered it, doing an exclusive R&R with them will make your manuscript SO much stronger (Genevieve's notes are invaluable).
b) They do result in offers.

I understand that it's disappointing to do major revisions and then get rejected. But to be honest, I would be stoked to get free, professional editorial feedback, even if it was on an exclusive basis and the manuscript didn't work out in the end. Maybe it would mean taking a break from querying other agents for a few months, but considering the time it takes to write a good novel, I really wouldn't care.

PR: 100pg request from Genevieve same day.

ER: 07/12/18. Feel super gutted by this one, but REALLY appreciate how specific Genevieve's rejection was. With references to the MS, she pointed out what she loved, and what she didn't love. This was the first query I ever sent out, and my first request, so even though I'm disappointed, I'm so happy they gave it this much thought. A few tears and a bucket of ice cream, that's what I need.....

@horrorchix89: She doesn't hate fantasy (yours or anyone's). It's just that as far as I know, Amy no longer represents YA fantasy.

EQ: 5/3
PR: 5/8 from Genevieve (50 pages)
Asked if I had any other requests out.
ER: 5/18 Personal Feedback. Issues with world building. Oh well

Updating this because I was going to query a new project, but reread the rejection letter. Genevieve told me not to send them fantasy. Not sure if it's just MY fantasy she hates or everyones. Just a heads up for YA Fantasy writers
