Nudged a while back. No follow-up. He seems to be super fast when interested, so I'm going to CNR this one!

Nicest, most affirming rejection I've ever received! "You are magnificent and fascinating, and your story sounds like something just crying to be told. I'm sure you'll find the right agent. The only reason I am not requesting the manuscript is that I only take on a few new projects per year and right now I am focusing on other areas, other types of books." He's truly incredible and his clients are lucky to have his representation. True professional and gentleman! Am humbled and grateful.
R 10/24
I appreciate the quick response (it was only for the query letter) and the kind words.
"This sounds very lovely and I think you will do well with it, but in terms of what I am looking for right now for my list, it's not precisely what I'm after, so I'm going to decline."
"Send us an unadorned, unaccompanied letter as your first step, whether paper or e-mail. If we're interested, we'll e-mail you an invitation to submit additional materials and instructions on how to do so."
My word processor autocorrected "Ghosh" to "Gosh" in the address and I didn't realize it. This cruel world.
