02/05/26: Query sent
05/16/26: Full Request
06/25/26: Nudged with offer of rep from another agent:
Same day: message from Paige saying she's been reading my full and loving it so far, promised to get back to me before my deadline.
07/08/26: Reluctant step aside due to timing and personal circumstances
07/09/26: I reached back out to Paige to let her know I declined the other agent's offer of rep over a mismatch in editorial vision, asked if she'd like to keep reading.
Same day: Paige "unrejected" my submission and said she'd love to consider again.
08/14/26: Nudged again with another offer of rep - this time one I'd be happy to accept, but I still wanted to consider all my options, especially Paige, who's been at the very top of my agent list.
08/17/26: Paige emailed to request a call.
08/19/26: Call and official offer of rep.
08/26/26: Happily accepted Paige's offer!
My journey to finding my agent was a bit convoluted, but I'm just so happy it led me to Paige! I'm so excited to start working with her, she's simply amazing!
