Oh, Ginger! eQueryied on 10-2, she requested a partial on 10-7. Now counting the days. My fingernails are gone so I've started on my feet.
Bransford was very fast and professional. I got a rejection back on my e-mail sub in about two hours. He's on the ball.
I could use some input... Eight weeks ago (when I was still a little ignorant) I called Curtis Brown NY on the phone (b/c I couldn't get their website up) to ask what their submission requirements were. They told me what to send, but also told me NOT to address my query, etc. to any particular agent b/c they like to decide which agent should read it!
Well, it's been eight weeks and I haven't heard a reply from my query, and I've been reading other posts that say to ALWAYS address queries to a specific agent! Do you think that b/c I wasn't specific they would "throw it out" or not respond? Am I being paranoid? There's really no way to "status query," as they don't accept email.

LaurieD -- I submitted to Elizabeth Harding on Aug 7 and she rejected me Sep 10 -- all via snail mail (so about 5 weeks). She wrote some nice comments on their standard rejection card and I really appreciated that...
Congratulations PVish - that sounds encouraging!
