@Imamanatee, on Pub Marketplace it says: I’m seeking unique voices in middle-grade, young adult and YA/adult-crossover fiction, as well as adult sci-fi, fantasy, and horror.

From what I can tell, he's not looking for adult fiction.

@DeborahSoCo, I received an auto reply in Jan. that Mr. Cusick was away from his desk editing manuscripts so responses may be delayed.

I did not get an email confirmation that my query was received. I know not all agents/agencies are set up for those, but I was curious if others did or didn't receive a auto-reply from his account to confirm the query was received. Thank you!
