Dear ____,

Thank you for submitting [TITLE] for my consideration—I appreciate being trusted with your work again and can see why you resonated with my wishlist. That said, I have unfortunately decided not to pursue this project either.

This is a subjective, taste-based opinion and is not intended as a condemnation of your craft or a reflection on your worth as a writer. In search of that elusive personal "fit" I have to pass on a lot of truly interesting projects. If I am sending you this form response, it is because I wasn't deeply intrigued by your premise (as articulated in your query) and your opening pages did not subsequently reverse this hesitation.

You can read more about my form responses on my website, [https://tinyurl.com/formreject].

I'm sorry not to write with better news and sincerely wish you the best of luck in the query trenches.

all best,
Allegra
