I had an MS out with Jared but he emailed me to say he wouldn’t be taking on new clients for a while. Closing this as rejected, even though it sort of wasn’t.

I chose to nudge due to an updated wordcount and given that it's been 100+ days for me. I sent a short note saying I'm still seeking representation with a little info about the edit.

Very thoughtful, kind, and genuinely helpful feedback. Outlined all of the things he liked, and gave a specific reason--with revision suggestions--for his rejection. Seems like a great person to work with.
