I did not see on query manager that he was accepting via query tracker now. On the website it still says to query via email. So in case you look at the website, he is not accepting via email any longer.

Thanks for thinking of me. This sounds like a compelling read, though I'm sorry to say not a fit for me at the moment. I'm sorry not to write with better news, but I hope you find the right match soon.
Sincerely,
John
