This agent previously looked at material for another novel I had queried and was very nice. Sad to see her go!
Thank you so much for giving me the opportunity to review your manuscript, TITLE . I truly appreciate the time and effort you've invested into crafting your work.
I am leaving DG&B and publishing. I wish you the best of luck in finding an agent and publisher for your work, and thank you, once again, for letting me read your material. Please feel free to query other agents at DG&B who may be a good fit.
Sincerely,
Kendall Berdinsky
