A couple months in the summer time is not an outrageous wait time. I'd keep following up. He probably hasn't gotten to it yet. Why would he not respond if he's already been emailing with you...

Re: An agent read my script, he said he'll reply with notes. Is he interested?

Don't do it over email. Do it over the phone. Be honest as to why you're doing it, wish 'em luck, and move on. Everybody involved will get over it.

Re: Deciphering what an agent said

All the other stuff is confusing -- the referral, the fact that it's already at CAA, the follow up -- that's all totally confusing.
