I withdrew 9/25 after getting an agent and got a personal response 10/17 asking to submit when it was ready. I believe once you have an agent they want you to withdraw and submit through the usual channels :)

For those who bumped with an offer (agent or publisher); when did you hear back from them? I nudged with agent representation on 12/4 and haven't heard back. Thanks.

@dazzlemewithbooks4 Yes, and it's a worthwhile investment. Only $25 a year for premium membership.
