Full Request - 4/7/22 - sent same day
Response - 4/21/22 - Would like to do an editorial call in advance of a likely revise-and-resubmit. Exciting!
Update - 4/24/22 - 2.5 hour zoom call. VERY productive. R&R but kind of an "active" one as she wants to be involved in the revisions. Time to put in some work!
R&R finally Finished and Sent - 11/6/22 - Took longer than I'd hoped but it's a very thorough R&R. Fingers crossed!
Offer of Rep - 2/2/23 - It's been five years and three books since I lost my previous agent. This feels really good :) Keep persevering, y'all!
Offer Accepted - 2/17/22 - Woohoo!

Update:
Queried 4/28/22
CNR (after three attempts) 1/5/23
252 days from first query
My query attempts must have gotten lost. But I'm cleaning out all my remaining queries to start the new year and this waiting isn't getting me anywhere. Good luck, everyone!
I'm not closing this one yet as I see others have been contacted many months later, but I think my queries have all been lost in spam. I sent a total of three queries as I was concerned they didn't go through. The third I sent from a different email in case my first address was flagged somehow. Yes, this sounds ridiculous to have sent three. Which is why I stopped there. I just noticed most of the people in the timeline around me got answers within days. My initial query is 137 days old as of this comment. My third query is two months old. As there are only five pages to read with the query, I would have thought a reply would come quickly which led me to send the two extra queries. Oh well. I gave it a shot! Happy querying everyone!

1/3/22: E-mail Query
7/13/22: Request after 191 days (partial or full not specified)
7/13/22: Replied to let her know I'm R&Ring, offering to send the old full or wait til revisions are complete; no response as of 7/22/22 [updated] -- will probably just submit the revision once it's done!
10/12/22: Sent revised full manuscript
11/29/22: Nudged with offer of representation
12/19/22: No response by deadline, accepted other offer of representation
Her request note on 7/13 was short but polite, acknowledging it's "been more than six months" since my query and asking if it was still available.
My guess is, she really does keep us in the "maybe" pile sometimes!
