@Agreeablemartini Yeah, if she likes your writing, she makes a partial request of 5 chapters. If she wants to read more, she requests a full.

Cathie liked my pitch during #QuestPit on Twitter so I queried her that same day which was 7/3. Got an email with a request for the first 5 chapters 21 days later on 7/25. She seems to have a rather high request rate at the moment, but hey, a request is a request! Fingers crossed she asks for a full next. 120k Romantasy.

Queried 7/17
Form rejection - 7/24 - Her email included that historically she's always tried to provide personalized responses to every author but is now trying to commit to under 30 day response times which means she's moving to form rejections.
