Message from Ali on August 28, 2024
"I wanted to get in touch and let you know that out of the MULTIPLE thousands of queries I've received, yours for [BOOK] is one of the 195 that remain in my "Maybe Pile." Congratulations!"
I replied to inform her I'd worked with a mentorship program and had an updated version, and asked if/how she'd like me to get it to her. I only got the automated response saying she'd get back to me ASAP.

Nudge on September 19, 2025
I asked if I'm still under consideration/if I maybe fell through the cracks. Same auto-response and nothing else as of September 30.

Between the weirdly congratulatory maybe pile message and the lack of response for almost 700 days, I'm really not getting a good vibe and don't foresee a functional relationship here even if we did sign together. Really bummed, but I'll be withdrawing my query.

Just so everyone is aware via the website and query form:

"I AM CURRENTLY ONLY OPEN TO:
VAMPIRE FICTION (ANY AGE)
GREEK GODS & GODDESSES FICTION (ANY AGE)
DYSTOPIAN FICTION (ANY AGE).
GROUNDED FANTASY (ANY AGE) - this is where a fantastical element is present in our realistic world."

Also this agent says "AUTO PASSES: Word count outside of genre expectations or age group. You don't tell me what's at stake for your main character in your pitch."
