For anyone wondering, I had already queried Danielle Burby and been rejected before I queried Alex. So if you've queried one and you're interested in the other, they don't seem to mind (or at least Alex doesn't)

She's had my full since July 4th of last year. Gives me a small glimmer of hope too. Good luck all!

@chiara1900 - She's had my full for 288 days so I assumed she'd just ghosted, but this gives me a tiny bit of hope that she might still respond.
