A personalised reply to my query was very welcome and unexpected.
This one hurt. I thought she would be the right agent to get it. Her response highlighted her keen eye for storytelling and her commitment to giving each manuscript in her “Maybe” pile the time and consideration it deserves.
It’s clear she genuinely cares about the craft of writing and goes the extra mile for her clients; lots of respect and I was happy to get a personal reply.
I highly recommend that authors whose work aligns with her manuscript Wishlist query her.
Check out her clients' work. I recently became obsessed with her client John Gwynne's epic high fantasy adventure series, and I only discovered his works via her promotions of it on her social media.

I have WOEFULLY neglected my submission reading - had quite a few client edits in I needed to prioritise. But the absolute GUILT has driven me back into the fray. So I apologise profusely to the 245 people in my 'Maybe' pile WTH. I'm getting there!!!

Suspense / mystery / near future - dystopian
Rejected 17th Oct 2024 - Not all rejections are created equal, and this was a lovely one. Julie may re-use some of the same phrases in her rejections, but she has taken the time to writing encouraging things, and I appreciate it.
".. [it] would normally, be something I'd like to see more of. However, sadly, I have a client already writing in this area and don't really feel that there's space on my, very small boutique list, to take on something else in the same area." - so close :-)
