Alex requested my full back in August and we traded a few e-mails about his reading schedule...but eventually he stopped responding to nudges, even when I notified him of an offer of representation. I was really bummed.

No receipt, and he normally responds the first contact, but sometimes can take more than 3 months to receive a response.

Is there an auto reply that comes in when you email him to acknowledge receipt?

Thank you for sending me your work.
While I thought there was much to admire here, I’m afraid I just wasn’t quite grabbed fully enough to think I’d be the right agent for this.
I’m sorry not to have better news, but do of course wish you all the best in your work and in your search for an agent and publisher.
All good wishes,
Alex

Personal Note: I'm grateful for the response. There are so many Literary agents that, even though I've nudged they still haven't gotten back to me so... Thank you, Alex.
Something nice to hear: If the stars can shine when it gets dark, so can you.

Is it worth nudging Alex? Lots of gaps in his timeline, and now seems to be moving forward rather than backward with replies... Anyone have experience of getting a reply to a nudge?

The rejection was kind, personable, and encouraging. I'm sad but I understand. Good luck to all who query this agent.

Twitter account lists him as open and his feed still has an 'I am open to submissions again today' tweet on 21st October, so was def open on that day for those who submitted queries then ... most recent comments are a bit confusing!

Queried October 21, 2022.
Got this message today:
"Thanks for sending me your work.
Sadly, I’m closed for submissions at present, and your work will be deleted.
If you’d like to resubmit to me in future please keep an eye on our website or my twitter page to see when I’m open again."
So...apparently he is closed to submissions?

I've previously queried Alex on a manuscript he rejected, but he requested I send my next book his way.
Thank you for sending me your work.
I thought this was really well done, but I’m afrid I just didn’t quite connect fully enough to think I’d be the right agent for this.
