weird form rejection from marketing assistant:

Thank you for your query to Martha Webb. Martha and I have discussed your letter and sample for Title. Despite its clear merits, we have decided to step aside so that you may find an agent whose interests and expertise are a better fit for your work.

Thank you again for thinking of Martha and CMD, and we wish you the best of luck in your publishing journey.

Respectfully,
Zoe Griffith, Sales & Marketing Assistant
