I sent them an historical fiction query in May 2023, heard back in January 2024 via one of those dual-font, cut-and-paste replies. I'd much rather assume rejection after three months of silence than receive the following impersonal note after eight:

So, a pass on the initial book query, but the publisher, Jeffrey Goldman, took a lot of time on his comments. After some correspondence, he's interested in a Proposal for an updated version of one of my out-of-print books.

YA historical fiction wanted only.

Too bad no one will read this. Sent a query with attached Proposal directly to Santa Monica Press. Asked for full about 18 days later.
