"Thank you for the opportunity to read your submission. Unfortunately, after reviewing your submission, I do not believe it would be a good fit for my list. The need to allocate my time effectively forces me to decline participation in many worthy projects, and, regretfully, that must be the decision in this case as well.
"I am very sorry not to be able to help you with this project but please accept my best wishes for you in your search for representation."
