WhatAWriter, when in doubt, the agent's website wins out.

I've snail-mailed her twice and received responses both times, once a request for pages.

Confusion reigns: Agent Query says this agency DOES accept e-queries. The agency's Web site says it does not. Anybody know for sure, for sure, for sure on this? I am weary of snail mail queries. Wastes paper, postage, time, and for what? Rejection. (I'm in a dismal mood this morning. Apologies.)

Very nice form rejection.

Thank you for your query and pages for XXXXX, which I found to be a particularly engaging, well-crafted read.

Yet, I’m afraid I don’t feel sufficiently enthused to feel as if I’m the right agent to represent this particular project on your behalf.

Publishing is a very subjective business and another agent might very well feel differently. I do wish you the all the best with your work, and thanks again for sharing it with me.

On April 12th, I've sent her my query via MAIL. Today I've heard back from Sarah Leavitt. She attached Zoe's letter to my email. She said she enjoyed the selection of detail I gave her. But she doesn't think she's the best agent to represents my interests at this time.

8/23:I've sent her my query for Chain Reaction on 8/4 and got an email back from Sara Leavitt again today. She said it was a well-structured read, but she doesn't feel enthusiastic to be the best agent to represent me.

"I enjoyed your narrative pace. However, I'm afraid I don't feel sufficiently enthused ...."

Hmmm, methinks she dost damn me with faint praise... but the really weird part is that today I received the rejection AGAIN, this time from a fellow writer in Topeka, Kansas. He wrote that he found my rejection note in his own SASE from this agency, so he forwarded it on to me (I live in Canada).

I don't know if you're on QT, but thanks very much Mark R. for passing along the letter and the kind words. I wish you all the best with your own writing.
