She included some feedback and seems very kind and professional. Super bummer :(

"Thank you for thinking of me with your query! I know this process is a grueling one and I thank you for your efforts to connect with me. Due to the volume of queries I receive, I only respond to those queries I am interested in reading further, and if I am interested in requesting the work you should hear from me within 8-10 weeks, if not sooner. Otherwise rest assured that this is a subjective business, so if your work and I do not connect others may certainly feel differently, and I urge you to continue submitting elsewhere.
Barbara Poelle"
