Submitted an UF to Jen Bouvier 11/15.
Updated to in-progress 11/18.

Queried 2 MS on June 10, 2024 at an editor's request.
Aug 1 - update that editor had started manuscript, four chapters in (on one manuscript, unsure about the other)
Aug 16 - meeting with editor to discuss R&R on primary MS with intent to pass along to another editor, VERY interested in the success of the project as a whole but was informed she couldn't acquire the novel as she was a previous beta reader.
Aug 22 - received formal (form) rejection on one MS from original editor with a personal notice to resubmit to a different editor, second manuscript passed to a third editor
Oct 3 - after revisions have been implemented, MS sent to editor2 as instructed

Submitted a Fantasy novel in July 17th 24.
Rejection from Lydia on September 17th 24.

07/03/2024: Un-agented submission via Submittable to Hoda Agharazi. She posted the editor MSWL back in April and we had a brief exchange. I think she would be the best fit for my Adult Romantasy (faerie tale retelling) 108k. Fingers crossed.

07/20/2024: Withdrew to make revisions based on an agent's feedback.

07/22/2024: Re-submitted. Word count is now 107k (Amara imprint)

09/05/2024: Had “the call” with a DIFFERENT publisher and it was amazing. Notified Hoda that I’m expecting a contract offer from another publisher via the contact form on her website.

She asked me to send an update through Submittable, but it seems Entangled hasn’t enabled authors to send them messages through Submittable. I emailed her back to say as much, but I’m sure what else to do.

09/09/2024: Kind pass from Hoda. She didn't think it would be a good fit. No hard feelings all around. She said she left it open for the other editors to look at, but I'm going to withdraw since I intend to sign with the other publisher. No need to waste anyone's time.

Generic email rejection-

Dear xxx,

Thank you for querying Entangled Publishing and giving us the opportunity to consider your manuscript. We sincerely appreciate the time and hard work you've put into this project, but unfortunately, xxx is not a good fit for us at this time.

Due to the volume of submissions we receive, we are no longer able to provide feedback on every query. What might not be right for Entangled's list could very well be perfect for another publisher, so we wish you the best of luck finding the right home for your manuscript.

In the meantime, please keep us in mind for your next project. We highly encourage you to keep writing, and we'd love to see more from you in the future.

Thank you for thinking of Entangled!

Sincerely,

Lydia Sharp
