5/3: Rejection on full
"I am sorry not to offer you representation with this manuscript. I’m not as enthusiastic as I’d hoped to be. The market is very difficult these days, and you deserve an unequivocally enthusiastic agent as your advocate. I may well be wrong, and you should certainly seek other agents’ opinions."
Though honest and blunt, it's painful wording for a form rejection, let alone as a rejection on a full that she requested. But it answers the question I've been asking for a while and sets in stone the end of my writing and querying.
Best of luck to those of you who are diving in.
