My bad, I swear I saw childrens in his genres, but I saw 3 different profiles, got confuse. Sorry. Polite and gentle.

Thank you so much for querying me with .................. Unfortunately, I don't represent middle grade, but wish you the very best of luck on your journey to publication.

All my best,
Jon

5 hours, form rejection.

It never fails. I see some entry on QT on what great rejections so-and-so sends, and I end up getting the same patronizing little pat on the head I get from everyone else. Maybe I just don't spend enough time kissing ass on Twitter.

From Jon on Twitter:
I’m seeing some speculation on QueryTracker (yes, agents are way too nosy and curious not to check our own pages), so just want to be very clear: unless the query is in a genre I don’t represent, I read every letter and dip into the sample pages for every query I receive!

Same quick form rejection as others. Too questioning if the writing was even read.

Very fast and polite form rejection, I think maybe 5-6 hours... I can't imagine Jon dove into the sample I've sent.
Fiction novel 79K in Hebrew (sample translated into English, of course).
1/18/23 form sub. and rej.

Jon responded within a day and let me down easy, explaining why he wasn't the right fit. It was the most constructive and positive rejection I've received so far, and I appreciate it.

Same as other have said- responded to my query in record time, 39 minutes. Always lousy to get rejected, but at least he gave me a valid reason instead of a form letter.

Gonna match the comments here, nice guy! Would recommend querying if your manuscript matches his interests.

Got rejection back in 24 hours, but did not feel like a form rejection at all, and it had some encouragement!
