When Jodi R requests a partial can anyone tell me how many pages she asks for, to those who've had experience with her. Thanks.
5-10-11 Personal, encouraging and helpful rejection letter. Pleased with the thoughtful response.

YAY, Cyia!!!
Anyone know if Rebecca Sherman is a non-responder? I always thought she responded. It's been almost 2 months since I queried.

Send it along with a note saying you are HOT HOT HOT at the moment and she darn sure better hurry. ("Dear Merrilee --May I call you Merrilee?-- . . . )
Full requested by Merrilee Heifitz. I'm trying to keep busy with my second novel so I don't chew my fingernails to shreds.
Good news! Just got a full request from Miriam Newman, assistant to Merrilee Heifetz (from an equery sent 21st May). 
That's amazing, Samara - congratulations! I'm currently waiting on a full with Steve Malk. Fingers crossed all around!
I'm so incredibly nervous. Steve Malk has had my full for six weeks, and he's rejected several fulls sent weeks after mine. He confirmed receipt at the time, so I'm trying to push it out of my mind and just be patient. It's really hard!

Hey, Bekstah--you want a new obsession while waiting? I've tried movies, games, exercise...I'd be happy to recommend specifics for any of them. (None of them are working, though--at least not all the time. Whee! But Steve Malk...that's impressive!)

I'll PM you some--although there's always biking or running or swimming so much that you don't dream about queries...except I dreamed about querying last night. So I may not be your best bet.
Ah, well...at least waiting's a nice problem to have!

Oh wow, good luck everyone! I think it's the first time I've ever met people who had stuff requested by Merrilee Heifetz, you all must be amazing.
I also have a question which was probably asked like a million times before, only I can't find the answer. I know WH says to never ever query two of their agents at the same time. But if the first agent doesn't reply for 8 weeks (6-8 weeks is stated as the official time period for replying to queries), can I consider it a rejection and query the second one?

Kind of depends on the agent. As far as I know all WH agents respond to all e-mails, even if by assistant. If you didn't hear back 1) check interviews or spotlights (caseylmccormick.blogspot.com) to see how long that individual agent says then 2) resend the query.

Thanks. Jodi Reamer is the agent, it seems her (or/and her assistant's) response time varies a lot.
