I sent my snail mail query to Wendy, arrived in New York June 1st 2009. I understand these folks are respectfully quick to respond, so I will keep you posted.
Erin, have you heard yet?

Thank you, "Oh Richard of the Soon To Be Published Novel" ~
I just checked and was pleased to note that my query had NONE of the dreaded 11 mistakes! PHEW!! It really is a cool blog, too. Appreciate the tip.
So, give us an update on your book - when will we see it in print?

Latest I heard was July 17.
By the way, re queries, I recounted earlier in this thread how Michelle said my query was one of the worst she'd ever received!

I know I'm late to this party, but I wholeheartedly second Richard on this one. Michelle is all of those things and more. (Can you tell she's my agent, too?)
Just got my form letter from Wendy Sherman, "...not right for me at this time...", exactly 14 days after sending snail mail package. Quite prompt, especially for snail mail!
RATS!
Will be looking for your work on the store shelves, Richard.

Has anyone queried Wendy recently? When I did for my previous novel, I received an auto response confirming receipt of my query, but this time around that didn't happen. I'm wondering if they changed their policy or my query just ended up lost in cyberspace somewhere.

Kimberly Perel at Wendy Sherman Associates
Has anyone had experience with Kimberly Perel at this agency? I've searched the AW forums and her name doesn't come up.

No experience with her, but I can't find anything bad on the web. I'm about to query anyway, so we'll see what happens. I'll let you know how it goes.
Forgot to add last year's experience:
5/21/11- Sent query to general submissions email listed (addressed to Wendy)
5/24/11- Full request from Vicky
5/31/11- Very nice rejection from Vicky
Quick and professional, love it.

Apparently Wendy Sherman Associates is either out of business or they have changed their URL and domain name. www.wsherman.com is available for sale on GoDaddy, and clicking on that URL leads to a Page Not Found error.
You might want to check the dates of posts, which appear on the bar above each one. The last post in this thread is three years old.

Lots of GoDaddy domains renewed yesterday, so it could just be a case of forgetting to update autopay info (she sez having just helped her boss deal with exactly that). Ms. Sherman is active on Twitter, so if you could ask her if it's a concern. In the meantime, her PM page: https://www.publishersmarketplace.com/members/wsherman/
