This is the form rejection I found on the site. I did not receive it in email -
Thank you for sending your manuscript to me. I appreciated the opportunity to consider it, but I'm sorry that I will have to pass on this. While I found the premise of your novel very interesting, I wasn't as captivated as I needed to be at the line level. I'm sure another agent will feel differently, and I hope this manuscript finds its way to someone who is ready to more passionately advocate for it soon. All the best with your future queries!
Best,
Ismita
Full request 3/26, Pass 4/27, no feedback, no from-the-agent rejection letter
She'd asked for the full on LitConnect, and I got the very brief rejection note from LitConnect, not from Ms. Hussain. I suspect they are still working out a system for their platform, but a note from the platform and not the agent after a full request is distressingly impersonal. She and I had exchanged email when I asked to confirm that the LitConnect request was real (a lot of fake agent stuff going on these days) and I had expected a little more interaction, even in the result of a pass.
The note -
Ismita Hussain has decided to pass on representing JACKSON FARROW CAME BACK DIFFERENT at this time.
