Submitted a query to Andrea Somberg on Friday through the website, and I got a request for a partial on Monday. So that made Monday a little nicer.
Received a 5 page request from Mrs. Andrea! my first one!! Don't you think 5 pages are not much though?
Just in case anyone has missed it - it's come up a number of times, many pages back - Andrea Somberg's submission guidelines on her personal website ask for the first five pages in the body of the email along with the query. The Harvey Klinger website does not mention this.
I know, because I got a request for the first five pages from her this morning, then I read this thread...
Sent Query plus 5 pages November 16th, received a form rejection today. I'm getting rather discouraged after eight years of this stuff...
However, it seems this agency isn't going to be "The One." Not for this book, anyway!
Hi all, has anyone had recent experience working with Harvey Klinger himself (or know someone who has)? I'm so excited to have an offer of representation from him, but I'm trying to do some due diligence because I have a few other offers as well. I'm shocked and thankful to be in this position, but as grateful as I am for that, this is actually a really tough call to make and I want to give my first book the best possible chance for success.
Thank you! I've taken your advice and am reaching out to a couple of clients of each of my top contenders today.
