@BySarahJane - looks like she does send rejections, it just takes approx. 90 days, so I would wait to query someone else until you've heard from her. If you haven't heard after the 90-day period then you can safely query another WH agent and consider it a CNR.

Should I nudge after eight weeks or consider it a CNR and query another agent at Writer's House? If you think I should nudge, could you recommend an appropriate format or a link to one? I'm still new to this. Thanks!

Very nice form rejection--professional, kind, NOT condescending, encouraging.

Website says responses within 8 weeks. As it has now been 3 months am closing this query. However, as of Dec. 29 she seems to have responded to only one query after mine.

@ClaudiaWeiskopf- The writer's house website says not to query another agent until the current agent passes on your project. I would wait about 8 weeks, and then kindly nudge her with a follow up email to see what she says. That's what I plan on doing anyway. Hope that helps! Good luck!
