Form rejection. Have no idea how much she read, forms like this just aren't helpful. Least she was quick tho. I'll give her this: even though she basically only responded in form letters, which gave me no insight into her personality or who she is as an actual person, she was very prompt with my nudge, and she did add some bit of personalization in her form to me, especially the part about just not having a vision for it to place it with a publisher. Fair enough.

"Thank you for your query and for allowing me to consider____.

I wish I could send encouraging word as to the marketing prospects for your work through this agency. Unfortunately, after careful review of the manuscript, I just do not feel confident that I have the vision to be your best advocate to place this work with the right publishing partner on your behalf. With regret, I must step aside.

Of course, this is just one opinion in a business where opinions always vary. Others may see immediate possibilities.

Please accept my very best wishes for success with ____ and your writing as a whole.

Sincerely,

Rebecca Scherer

Shall we assume a skip over our query in the QT Timeline is the same as a rejection?

Web site says to be patient...auto-closed by QT after 4 months. Some people get forms within days, some never hear a thing...it's a random and exasperating business.

Kind form letter rejection:

Thank you for allowing me to consider your work.

I wish I could send encouraging word as to the marketing prospects for NINTH & HIGH through this agency. Regretfully, I just don’t feel confident in my ability to place this work with a publisher in this competitive market.

Of course this is just one opinion in a dependably subjective business. Another reader may see immediate possibilities.

Please accept my best wishes for success with your writing.
