Kind, personalized rejection. Just not into fantasy. Will try her again with a new project because she's top of my list.

Patrick, I think the genres need to be updated. Per her website: http://www.wcaltd.com/hilary-mcmahon/
I’m not the right fit for
Genre fiction
Fantasy, sci fi, mysteries, horror, romance
Prescriptive non-fiction
Politics
Thank you!!!

I think she must open and close on a regular basis. Although closed now, she was open last fall. I submitted to her in October 2018 and she personally replied indicating that she wasn't interested in a memoir at that time. Nevertheless, her comments were encouraging.

EQ: March 30 I believe the "closed to queries" note is out of date. The website doesn't indicate that.
ER: April. 03 Very kind, personal, complimentary response. She is unable to take on new clients at this time.

Patrick: She's open for submissions. Website says open, and she sent a personal response to a query I sent late last year.

This is what I received, approx. 5 minutes after querying...
