97k YA sapphic fantasy retelling
Queried: November 4, 2025 (received automatic confirmation)
Notified of full request as per agency guidelines: January 3, 2026 (no response)
CNR @ 97 days
From Maddy's auto-confirmation: 'If you have not heard from us within twelve weeks, please take this to mean that we are no longer considering representation.'
I left this open for longer than twelve weeks just in case, but I probably should've closed it out sooner. In the past year, Maddy's always made requests within 56 days.

Hi!
I hope you’re really well! Chloe shared this with me because she knows I am dying for an xx book and I absolutely loved this sample!
Would you be happy to share the full with me?
Thank you!

Sent same day. Thinking this one will be a rejection, but still an honor nonetheless! I've never been referred before :)
