He requested that I send the full manuscript via my email. He said that my book was skillfully written (well-plotted with deeply drawn characters) but that it wasn't for him. It took him a little over a month to reply.

August rejection from Ian. To me it's phrased oddly but maybe this is a common way to reject?

Sought him out after I realized her represented Ausubel and Manguso and Maggie Nelson. Sounds like he doesn't really take any unsolicited submissions, but occasionally gives feedback. That's fine by me!

Getting ready to submit to Mr. Mark. Has anyone had recent interactions with him?
