Nudged 08/11/25
QT Automatic CNR 09/16/25 (121 days)
Rejection 09/29/25 (134 days) - I'm guessing my word count is too low? Not sure because rejection didn't have desired word count filled out. Either way, feedback is feedback. I'll take it.
"I'm afraid this story might require further editing in part due to your word count of 67000. In Young Adult: Fantasy, submissions should be in the XX,000-XX,000 word range, especially for a debut."
YA Fantasy, 67K
Update - Eva reached out again to let me know she accidentally sent me the wrong form! Nothing wrong with my word count; my project is just not a fit for her! I appreciate her taking the time to reach out and clear the confusion! She's super nice!

Notified of offer: 10/13/25
Full request: 10/14/25 with a kind note that she's busy at Frankfurt book fair, but will try to get back within the time frame
Withdrew 10/27/25 (the end date) and signed with other offering agency. Bummed, but she was very kind about it and being busy. Hopefully our paths will cross in some capacity in the future!
