Another droplet of awesome in your day

I think agent Rachelle Gardner wins the internets for this post here, which was a follow up to yesterday's rather contentious post which got a lot of comments both positive and negative concerning writers who complain.

I have to commend her for really listening, even when it had to be really wince inducing to do so. I'd love to see more of this kind of thing from agents.

Also? I would love it if every agent set up an autoresponse system for queries. I don't mind a "no response equal rejection" policy if I have a way of knowing the email got there. A simple, "Your query has been received, if you don't get a response in [insert time frame], we aren't interested" would go a long, long way.
