"Thank you for thinking of me for [TITLE], and for your patience as I reviewed your materials. I so appreciated the chance to take a look!
You are a strong writer with an engaging voice and I found much here to love. That said, I didn't connect with the narrative as much as I'd hoped to. As a result, I have regretfully decided to step aside. I'm sorry not to be writing with better news, but I wish you the very best of luck in your career.
Stay tough out there and keep writing!"
