Erin took a year and a half to read my full, even after I met her at a conference and she loved my query letter! I liked her in person, though, and she certainly is a very successful agent. Her list is so full, I think she only takes on projects she really flips over.

Attended a conference that she spoke at, and was referred to her by an author there that I had a critique with.

74k words, speculative YA thriller. She said it wasn't really the type of story she enjoyed anyway, but she wanted to take a look just in case, and gave me some great feedback about the opening. Also said my writing was much stronger than the usual submission, so that softened the blow tremendously!

Was referred to Erin from Ammi-Joan Paquette, who saw my pitch in a contest. Received a full request from Erin on 6/1 :) She said her reading time on a full is about 4 months. Playing the waiting game!

Submitted on 4/16/11 per her invitation two years ago (once I graduated from Vermont College). Got an automatically generated reply she was out of the office until 4/25, haven't heard back yet.

Queried via her website on 2/3/10. (I had contact with her a few years ago through a referral from a published author. She doesn't take queries from people who have no previous connection.) Nudged her via same website on 2/22/10. Received a request for a first chapter the next day. Sent 3/4. Received nice rejection 3/11/10.

I, like srm_me, was contacted by the associate agent after she saw my query online in a contest and asked to submit a partial. Very exciting! Good to know that agents do take the time to read blogs and check out websites.

Can't say enough nice things about this person. She took the time to give me a couple lines of feedback even though she declined representation... Anyone would be lucky to be represented by her.
