Received this response less than an hour after querying:
“ Thank you—but I must step aside…I am swamped and not taking on new
projects.”

I tried sending a query to the email address provided, but it bounced back. Is this agency still around?

ER 7/17/19 (Passed via nudge--Beverly passed, said they're not taking on new clients. But Michael Chan said he considered it before he passed since they're overwhelmed with submissions. He told me not to give up.)

Though my full manuscript was rejected, my experience with Ms. Slopen was of the highest degree of professionalism possible. Speedy, polite and clear. Very positive.

They state on their web page that they don't accept many new authors. This is probably a reach.
