All correspondence anonymous (signed "The Clegg Agency"). Still, a gracious personal rejection that clearly demonstrated someone read the entire MS, and read it thoughtfully. These people are masters at letting you down gently. Appreciated the lightning fast and generous response.

Polite step-aside: 4/17/17 - a little bit form-y, but with some specific "things to admire" inserted in, which felt nice.
CNR 3.12.17
Appears that response is provided only if he requests pages.

ER: 10/12/16
Friendly, but very form-y rejection: We’ve had a chance to read, and while we saw much to admire in these pages, we didn’t find ourselves falling into it with the kind of all-in, no-reservations enthusiasm that we would need in order to serve as the novel’s best champions. This of course isn’t to say that it’s not succeeding on its own terms, but rather that we’re likely not the novel’s best readers, and as such won’t presume to offer specific editorial suggestions—to do so would be irresponsible. That said, we’re glad to have had the chance to read and familiarize ourselves with your writing. Please know that we’ll be wishing you the very best with this and all else going forward.
