thanks for letting me take a look. I'm afraid this doesn't seem like the right project for me, but I'm sure other agents will feel differently. Best of luck placing your work.

Thanks for giving me a chance at your novel. I wish I were the right agent for you, but I didn’t love it quite enough. I’m sorry. I think another agent is likely to greet it with the enthusiasm you deserve.

Prompt, personal rejection to a full: Thanks for giving me a chance at your powerful story. I wish I were the right agent for you, but I don’t feel confident I would be able to find a home for EVERY TIME. I’m sorry. I think another agent is likely to feel different.
