She's FAST! and a Valentine's Day rejection.
She's blunt:
Thank for your query. I’m afraid this isn’t for me.
Good luck,
Catherine

"Sorry it has taken me a while to respond. I'm afraid I'm a bit swamped at the moment so will have to pass."

Really would have preferred a form rejection to that nothing sandwich.

Polite rejection stating she is “super busy at the moment and not taking on anymore clients”

@lindsaysmith818, InkWell's website says all queries should go to the submissions email. (Most agents who utilize a general email like this don't like to also receive queries on their personal emails.) Additionally, the website says you will hear from them in two months if they want to see more; otherwise, you won't hear from them. Good luck!

According to the QT stats, Catherine usually responds within two days if she's interested. So I'm going to go ahead and close this one out... Best of luck to everyone still being considered!
