Dear ____,
While we greatly appreciate your interest in our agency and thank you for your query (and patience!), I’m afraid we’re going to pass on requesting your work. Sorry. With room for one or two new clients on my list right now, I have to limit submission requests to those that feel most likely a match in genre, content, style, and tone.
Although I’m passing on your project, I hope the next agent will respond enthusiastically, if that hasn’t indeed already happened.
Wishing you the best of luck, success, and all good things with your project this spring.
Sorche
ER 5/2/18 (Passed from nudge--not a good fit.)

Form response with apology for taking so long. Not sure how it got lost; other people got responses more quickly.
EQ - 4/3/18
ER- 4/27/18: very nicely worded and kind rejection email (form)

11/14/15--I requeried Sorche with Chain Reaction and heard back from her today--not a close fit rejection. Since I didn't get a response from her on Venom's requery, I'll try her again in 2016 in hopes to get a response this time.
2/24/16-On 2/8/16, I've re-requeried Fairbank Lit with Venom's requery, since I gotten a no response on Venom last year (see above) and a pass with Chain Reaction, last year, too. She passed this time--selective with picking new clients, not a good match.
ER: april 21 17
ER - 1/31/17
CNR 1/5/17 (No word from nudge--but as stated her per guidelines, I'll requery her with DI again next month.)
Update: I got a belated R from them today. Not a match. Will try her in the future with something else.
