I had a workshop with her in September where she critiqued my query, whole time I thought she was being polite about having passed over it before. Then I read her newsletter. Now I know she hasn't seen it yet!
Nudged 10/14/24 to ask if I can send the updated materials, lol
12/2/24: she responded to say I could send the updated query.
12/3/24: sent updated query and pages via email.
