Dear ____,
Thank you for the opportunity to read and consider [TITLE]. I'm sorry to share that I'm going to step aside, as I unfortunately didn't feel compelled by the material on that heart and gut level you'd want your agent to have, and that you deserve.

I understand the querying process can be a challenge, and I truly appreciate you sharing your work with me. I wish you the very best in finding a good home for it.

Warmly,
Larissa
