This is so strange... I queried two agents today who are on vacation, and got two out of office messages. One said the usual, that she would get to it on Monday when she returns. The other, from Zuckerbrot, said this: "Thank you for your thoughtful query. I’m going on vacation this week, so I’m going to step aside. Sorry the timing isn’t right."

I'm sort of blindsided. I'm always happy for a quick rejection when it's genuine, because it's great to know quickly if an agent isn't interested, but this is confusing. I spent so much time on the query and I was really excited at the thought of her as my agent, and then I get rejected by default because I happened to email on the wrong day? I totally understand dreading a backlog of queries after vacation, but this seems a little extreme...

Renée emailed immediately after my 12/06 submission:
