633 days after query, a response and a pass. At least she wrote a semi-personalized no. This book has been published for 6 months now.

Queried in November 2023 after meeting her at Futurescapes.
I knew that she stopped considering any queries that winter and for most of 2024, so I figured this was a benign CNR, but I actually got a non-form rejection on 4/28/2025.
"Thank you for your query, and for your patience while we reviewed your material. I realize you have most likely moved on with this project, but I did want to get back to you regardless. There's some lovely writing here, but it's not quite a fit for my list, so I am going to officially pass. I hope you have found a home for [title], or if not, that you are working on a wonderful new project. Wishing you all the best with your writing endeavors. Thank you again for the chance to look."

Nephele has had my partial for over a year now, and hasn't responded to a couple of nudges with offer to send revised pages, so will CNR this, but a shame since she seems like a great agent.
