"Thank you so much for sharing your work with me, and for your patience. I feel like I'm not quite the right fit, so I'm going to bow out--but I hope you will continue writing and sending out your work. I'm sure you've heard this before, but the industry really is so subjective. Just as you won't love every story you pick up in a bookstore, not every agent will love every manuscript. Again, thank you for thinking of me. I hope you find the perfect home for your work, and soon."

Does anyone have any updates? I queried in February and nudged a week ago. Haven't heard anything. Wondering if I should take it as a no.

I've queried projects to her in the past and received responses 8-12 months later. I'm assuming this will be a pass.

Though we do our best, QueryTracker can not guarantee the accuracy of any information provided.
An agent listing on QueryTracker is not an endorsement or recommendation of that agent by QueryTracker.
Before contacting an agent, authors should verify and assess the agent's requirements and suitability by visiting the agent's website(s), and becoming familiar with ways to spot and avoid bad agents. A good place to start is Writers Beware, a watch group that helps inform and protect authors from shady practices.
I just got a pass from Monica, but she suggested I sub my adult horror novel to Jessica. So that's why I'm asking.
