@SlowWriter yes I checked in before the Christmas holiday and also received a quick, kind reply that it was still in the queue so I'm trying to hang onto that vibe :)

@Unicornzthoughtz my wait is in the 100+ range. I have checked in and I received a very prompt and friendly response (which I was thankful for!) that it was still in the TBR queue.

@SIWhite563 @SlowWriter so have both of you waited a very long time to get a response about your full submissions? And is this after following up multiple times to check on the status of them?

UGH 🫠 @SIWhite563… I’m assuming you’ve checked in on the status of your full since submission? (I’m also waiting to hear back on a full)

@unicornzthoughtz - she replied with a full request to my query in 13 days...but I've been waiting to hear back on my full for 200+ days.
