Bella Books publishes fiction—books and eBooks for and about women-loving-women. From romance to mystery, science-fiction and thrillers, Bella Books embraces and celebrates the worldwide community of our lesbian, sapphic, queer, non-binary fiction readers and authors of all ages, cultures and colors.

2/3: Submission per guidelines (adult speculative mystery, LGBT protagonist, 88K)
5/18: Nudge after their 90-day timeline passed (no response)
6/20: Emailed saying that I'm planning on submitting to other agencies (Bella Books desires non-simultaneous submissions)

They'd actually be a great fit for my protagonist and manuscript, given their catalogue, and I'd love to work with an indie publisher.
