Received a very nice rejection today from Sarah LaPolla on my full (sent 12/9/10). Frankly, I was surprised and delighted that she even requested it (an excerpt was in the Bakers Dozen Auction over at Miss Snark's First Victim and she placed a bid on the manuscript) since it's a middle grade novel and she doesn't appear to solicit those. Anyway, I couldn't have asked for a nicer "no."
Best of luck to others who have things out with Curtis Brown!
