Another hilarious reminder of how hard new-agent-hunting is going to be. (Yes, I decided to send along a handful of queries this afternoon instead.)
Although this timeline is atypical among agents, it's also coming from someone with a solid literary practice.
If I didn't so desperately want to give this trilogy a chance at being traditionally published, the slim pickings among SF agents, and messages like this, would drive me to self/indie-publishing it in a heartbeat.
@MLClark Six months. How condescending.
