Many thanks for sharing these opening chapters of XXX with me. There is much to admire here but ultimately I’m afraid I don’t think I’m the right match for this story. Agenting is very subjective, so I hope you do not find this discouraging. Wishing you the very best in your querying journey and writing career!

Thank you for submitting your work to us. After consideration we didn't feel it was quite the right fit for us and unfortunately won’t be offering you representation.



We wish you the best of luck with your other submissions and hope you find the right agent to take this forward.



Kind regards,
