@Emma2_011, I'm definitely getting that vibe after querying for a few days. Honestly, I've been worried about its length, but my various workshop partners said it didn't feel bloated or too slowly paced, so I decided to give it a chance with a few agents to see what happens. So far, one has already told me it's too long! So it sounds like I'll have to shave it down 😅. I appreciate the advice!

@RCRodriguez, idk really, but your word count seems a bit too high for sci-fi, like maybe consider trimming it to 125k words or maybe make it a series if the story allows. 187k words is way too much, and agents will be hesitant about it. I'm not saying this to discourage you, btw! I just think you deserve to have agents not hesitant, but rather ask for more!
