@EolasPellor, yes, she sends a long form rejection letter. I've seen it, too. :-)

If this was a form rejection, it's the longest form rejection I've seen. No real feedback, however I'm not shocked by the rejection, as she had quite a few speculative submissions in the last month or two: choosing the one she wants can't be easy Quite a few queries were rejected faster than mine, and all the ones submitted mine were rejected before mine was.

@CombatKatie it could be that you are in the "maybe " pile. I sent my query on 6/8/26. I choose to believe it's in the maybe pile. :)
