Agents with a Full MS

[FunderAnna]

Can anyone who has had an agent asking for a full MS tell me how long they took to get back with a decision.

The agency which has my MS is a newish one - so I think relatively small. I thought I'd leave it a month, before sending a follow up email.

(I have had an agent before but it's a while back, so can't remember how long it took her to decide on that occasion. But I think she was relatively prompt.)

I currently have 4 out with agents, the longest has been with them for 8 weeks, the shortest for 2 weeks and they've all gone very, very quiet. Good luck!

It took eight weeks in my case. That's for a 90k-ish word novel.
