Queried 29 Jan 2026, alt-historical horror 88k, coincidentally (or not) involving a distant relative of his
Nudged 2 March notifying of an offer of rep
Emailed me a nice rejection within an hour after the nudge--with note "I do not work in historical for fiction"

I received a response in seven hours: Thank you for trusting me with your first query. I'm afraid this is farther afield spiritually than is really in my wheelhouse, but I am wishing you the very best for your project.
