Heather requested my full about 4 months ago. Rejection received today. I think it's a form rejection...Bummer.

Thank you for sending me the manuscript for [TITLE] and for your patience while I read it.

Your premise made me excited to read, but since I have to choose between several amazing projects which one I'm going to champion, I have to be really passionate about every aspect of the manuscript. So I'm afraid I'm going to pass.

I'm sorry not to have better news. While this wasn't a perfect match for me, I encourage you to submit to other agents, as one of them may feel differently. I wish you the best of luck.

Sincerely,
Heather

I queried Ms. Cashman on 6/7/22.

She requested the full on 10/21/22. But I was in the middle of a revision when she requested, so I asked if I could send her the revised version once I was done. On 10/26/22, she said to take my time and send the revised full whenever it was ready.

Today, 11/14/22, she rejected my manuscript... even though I never sent it to her (I'm still revising). It seemed like her standard form rejection.

Maybe it was a mistake, or maybe she changed her mind. Oh well.

Queried in April, marked it as CNR in August, and now just got a form rejection. Like.... girl?? It's been over six months?? I figured it was a no? But thanks I guess?

I'd originally wrote this off as a CNR in August, but received a response last week. Guess she's working through her query pile.

I'm in the same boat. Day 129 and every query on both sides of mine has been rejected. I'm not going to nudge, though. If it were an email query I would, but I have confidence that it's hard to lose a QM query.

FQ: 06/06. I'm currently at day 137. After all the responses today, all the way to the end of the list, I'm not sure if I should nudge or not.

I’d closed this out quite some time ago, so this was a nice surprise!

I had closed this query, so receiving a rejection was a bit unexpected, but it's nice to have some closure.

Thank you for querying me with >>TITLE<<.
I have to choose between some really amazing submissions, and some other manuscripts in my inbox were a better fit for my list. However, I encourage you to submit to other agents, as one of them may be perfect for this project.
