Q: 3/8/26
YA LGBTQ Romance, 78k
CNR: 5/17/26 (70 days)
Full Request : 10/29/26 (235 days) - explained to Lee that since I originally queried I have made significant changes and the project sits more in the Adult/NA space than YA but he was happy to read anyway.

3/12/26 - EQ adult horror
6/4/26 - Nudged (they say to nudge after 12 weeks)
6/13/26 - nudged again due to full request from another agent
8/24/26 - CNR at 165 days
10/29/26 - form rejection. I appreciated them following up:
"Thanks so much for thinking of me for this one, and sincere apologies for the long delay on my end—given the timing, I realize that you might have already marked this as CNR or taken it elsewhere, but I wanted to make sure I got a response to you, even if it’s just to close the loop. After careful consideration, I've decided to respectfully step aside, but I appreciate the opportunity to read your work and I wish you the best of luck."

Adult dark SF romance, 119k @ query
Full Request: 10/29/2026
I had considered it CNR a few months back, was thoroughly surprised to get a full request. I did let him know since then I had reduced the WC from 119k to 112k, and sent it over. ^.^
