Memoir 78,000
Query: 3/9
Personal rejection 3/12:
Thank you so much for writing me regarding ______________ I like your book idea and I think it has potential. I wish I could pursue representation, but unfortunately the large publishers with whom I work require a more fully-developed platform.
I encourage you to continue building. It isn't about promoting yourself, but about connecting with your target reader. I would advise taking another year or so to share your message while building your social media numbers, at which time you could have a shot at a major publisher.
You could also choose to go with a smaller publisher that requires neither an agent nor large platform numbers.
