Email Rejection - 7/19/19
Very warm and personal rejection and she said I should query with future projects. I truly appreciate her taking the time to personalize her communication with me. Hope someone lands her as agent. She seems great.

EQ: August 22
Really excited about this one! I'm pretty confident in my synopsis so hopefully I can see a FR with this one!
ER: August 27. I'm pretty disappointed but there's still lots of agents out there so!!
FULL REQUEST- 6/28/18
FULL SENT
PERSONALIZED rejection email- 7/17 (there’s much to be admired about your writing (and the exciting, original concept!), this one isn’t quite right for my list.
I followed up with a thank you note and she replied with encouraging email suggesting that I not take rejections personally. (You are a very strong writer.)

Nudged when received another offer
Offered Rep on 8/8
Talked to her on phone. Really great conversation. She's knowledgeable and passionate and although just getting into agenting (which was why I went another direction), she knows the business from the writer's perspective (she's a published author). If I didn't have my options I have (multiple offers), I would have felt comfortable accepting rep. I'd recommend (and I've been through this before & have dealt with a bunch of good agents).
ER: 5/15/17
Sweet personalized rejection.

ER: 4/24/17 - Personalized form. She complimented my writing and praised the unique concept, but it wasn't right for her list. She seems really nice.
