I was pleasantly surprised to receive a thoughtful and kind rejection within just 24 hours! I really appreciated the personalized feedback and would highly recommend considering Mr. Darga for anyone starting their querying journey, but I respect his time and wouldn't want to overwhelm his inbox. Such a pleasure.

1 day, rejected. "For whatever reason (and nothing at all to do with you), I always find some difficulty clicking with books about bands/the music world." Nice to get feedback. This is a good agent.

Very quick rejection that he didn't connect with my MC's voice. Appreciate the speediness and personalization.

Semi-personalized, very kind rejection after 2 days. This was actually pretty uplifting to hear after several form rejections about not connecting to characters (what a reminder of subjectivity), and I appreciate the time and energy he spent considering my work.
"Thank you so much for considering me to represent your work. Unfortunately, I don't think that TITLE is a good fit for my list at this time -- you're a fantastic writer and I read all of your sample pages with interest; I was truly impressed by how distinct and fully-formed CHARACTER X and CHARACTER Y's voices were on the page, but at the end of the day I wasn't fully drawn in by the pacing -- but I wish you the very best of luck in your querying journey."
