Same day automatic Email sent: Hello and thank you for thinking of The Seymour Agency!

Your submission is important to us. Please know that every query is given extensive consideration. If we do not respond with a request for additional material within three weeks, we have elected to pass. This means that the material is not right for us at this time, but this is subjective, and another agent or editor may feel differently. Do NOT be discouraged. As with any partnership, it is important to find the best match.

If we have requested a full or partial of your manuscript, please follow up for a response after nine weeks. Bear in mind that oftentimes a project may receive multiple reads before a decision is reached.

In all of your endeavors, we wish you the best, and we thank you for the privilege to review your work.
Many thanks,

Jennifer

Personal Note: I sent an email today 9/15/2022, Dear: Jennifer Wills

I’m writing to you to let you know that I sent a query on 8/9/2022. I haven’t heard back from you and I understand that while your response email said "If we do not respond with a request for additional material within three weeks, we have elected to pass." I also know that some emails do tend to go astray and if that’s the case I’d love to re-send my material. Please let me know if that’s the case but if not and you did happen to pass on my work, thank you for your time in reading everything I sent you, and have an amazing rest of your day. Please stay safe.
Best wishes-
I query one time and if they decide not to respond back to me, I put them on a do not query list. I'd prefer to give them a chance, and then keep it moving. When an agent has bad reviews, I make them my first query because I can weed out agents as I reread and fix my work.

Not going to query her. Too many negative comments.

Had a full request from her back in November 2020 after a Seymour open call
Nudged with an updated version in April 2021
Nudged on the nudge July 2021
Resubmitted in QM July 2021
Nudged with offer January 2022
...and finally gave up on her.
She was very personable and enthusiastic on our call but it was all downhill from there! Only query her if you don't mind being ghosted.

Based on what others have said here, it's probably best not to consider her.

I looked at her timeline. She ghosted all the partials and fulls she requested in the last year. Writers should stop querying agents like that so she'll get the message.

From their web site: "We make a conscious effort to reply to every query we receive. If you do not receive a request for additional materials within three weeks, you should assume that we are not interested in that particular project."
