@reagan_of, yes he takes YA. He has listed it on his QueryManager form.

He used to program simulators, so I though my book about simulations would be a perfect fit. I guess he didn't think so. Not even a personalized rejection. I'm feeling sadness.

Was a very kind reply that showed that he actually read my query and did look at my work. Even though it ended up being a pass, I’m really thankful I had the opportunity to query him!
