[1/6/2024] Query Submitted
Noting that I DID get an auto-reply email confirming receipt of my submission. For what
it's worth, I included a few keywords in the subject to ensure my email got through the spam filters. My email headline was:

[Attn: Julie Barer] Query Submission: "Title of Book" by Author Name

Hope this helps!
