Form rejection on 28 Feb
"Thank you for sharing your work with me. Unfortunately, I'm not the right fit for this project, so I'll have to pass on further consideration. This is, of course, very subjective, but every project deserves an enthusiastic champion for representation.
I'm sorry not to have better news for you. I wish I had the time to respond individually, but it's important to me that every query gets a reply, which means many must get this form response.
Thank you for considering me, and I wish you the best of luck with your publishing journey."

                Took 6 days to receive form rejection.
Was really hoping for some feedback since several comments expressed they received feedback, even if it was a simple "I hate it, it sucks," haha, but still appreciate quick response.
