Q: 05/30
Heads-up w/ multiple offers of rep: 05/30
Full Req: 06/02
77K crossover urban fantasy w/ vampires
I don't know if she uses it in her rejections but I always find it funny whenever an agent uses "cheers" lol.
She seems to be so friendly and so responsive in her messages (especially since I’ve been having technical issues with QT the last couple of weeks). Seems like an absolute gem!
