Query: 10/29/19
Reject: 11/1/19
Form letter however, lovely language that somehow made you feel "less than horrific" about yourself. I would imagine he is a nice person somehow as he spent the extra minute to write a helpful, kind letter.
Thank you for your query. I appreciate the opportunity to consider your novel for possible representation but having read your description and sample material I’m not enthusiastic enough about it to be the right agent for you. However, don’t let my response discourage you as this is only my opinion and as there are lots of agents there is a good chance you’ll find another who feels differently. I highly recommend the website of the Association of Authors’ Representatives (AAR), www.aaronline.org, whose members adhere to a Canon of Ethics.
I’m sorry that I can’t respond in a more detailed and personal manner because of the large number of queries I receive. Thanks for thinking of me, and I wish you the best of luck with _________.
Sincerely,
Michael Congdon
