I tried submitting a query through the website and got an error message. I tried multiple times, but always got an error message - hopefully it didn't end up going through 5 times.

Sorry bckinney, but the link works for me. You may have something on your computer redirecting traffic. You may want to run a virus scanner or malwarebytes.

Uhhh http://www.meredithbernsteinliteraryagency.com/ does NOT go to an agent's page. I don't know if it's a website-domain problem or an agency-doesn't-exist problem, but that goes straight to a porn site!

Query: 8/6/22
PR for 75 pages: 8/8/22, pages sent via snail mail 8/11/22
FR 9/8 with message: "I've really enjoyed the first 75 pages of your book and would now like to request the remainder...also in hard copy!"
:) encouraging, plan to send remainder of book via hard copy on Monday 9/12
Very kind rejection 10/6/22, lots of nice things were said. Sounds like more of a "Didn't feel like she could sell it" kind of rejection.
