QM: 8/20
Full Request: 10/9

89k Upper YA Fantasy, so to the comments below: she definitely does rep and is seeking YA. Never self reject, so if it's on the QM form go for it.

Signed with Courtney in June after originally querying Steven Malk! She is absolutely wonderful. Very organized, communicative, and responsive. MG novel: 31k words

She doesn't have it listed on her Publishers Marketplace page but it's on her query manager. She just updated her PM page she's only taking on a select list of YA and adult but is focusing more on MG and PB. I would say still submit to her and see what she says. If she says no she says no.
