When I read past remarks about Dee Mura, I thought as did others that the writers have "sour grapes," but I've changed my tune! My manuscript was requested along with a 6 week agreement to send it to nobody else. After a couple of months, I followed up with an "I was wondering if you've had a chance to look at it?" and was ignored. I do understand that many agents are too swamped to respond to hundreds of query letters, but I think that once somebody is on the "requested" level and has been on hold for months, a one sentence email would have been humane. Sour grapes?
