#ownvoices - POC mswl - decided to query.
Results:
EQ: 9-18-2020
FR: 9-24-2020 sent same day
Emailed me back enthusiastically to confirm this was an ownvoices MS and if I’d be interested in making the girls older. I said yes, as I’m open to any changes.
Three months passed - understandable
On 1-6-21 - I sent a polite check in to see if she’d be open to a few changes I wanted to make, so far nothing.
I would withdrawal as I’m now working with an editor on a full manuscript evaluation. But since no word from my nudge a month ago - maybe it was a rejection with no response, which seems to be the new thing around here on fulls. At least for me, anyway.

Has anyone heard anything from Maura in regards to queries? I'm really excited because she has my full but I'm afraid my email didn't go through as I've been having some issues. Has anyone had any correspondence with her? Thanks!
