Rejection 7/8/24, with the following letter. What is frustrating is that there is nothing for me to work with here, as it is only pseudo-personalized:

I do apologize for the lengthy delay in getting back to you - I'm just buried all the time over here. I'm usually not this slow, I assure you, so I very much appreciate your patience.

I think I'm going to pass on this, I'm afraid; I don't have anything critical to say in terms of writing style or poise or polish or anything of the sort; I just don't think I'm the man for the job here. My current workload forces me to be extremely selective when taking on new clients, and I just didn't fall in love the way I have to these days.

But I do think that you're a good writer, and another agent may very well feel differently about this manuscript; I can see a home for this somewhere!

Thanks again for letting me consider, and the best of luck to you!
