For whatever reason, updating my status doesn't seem to reflect in the query timeline, but for anyone else reviewing requests -- mine was an R&R in April 2025. I spent close to 6 months working on a revision and re-queried in November 2025. In February, I hadn't heard anything, but then I had a chance to pitch her at an online event. Ashley was warm and kind, immediately remembered my project and we realized my email had just gotten missed. She requested the full on the spot and offered in May. I was fortunate enough to have multiple offers, and one of the other agents had a vision that spoke to me more deeply, but Ashley's vision was smart and sharp and also would have led to a compelling book. I had a great query experience with Ashley, and if you are lucky enough to get words of feedback from her, I can highly recommend running with the notes! Even though I'm not working with her as my agent, my book is already stronger for having her consideration and insights.
