Thank you so much for sending your work for my consideration. I’m afraid that it is not a fit for me right now, so I will decline. This is not a comment on the quality of your manuscript or the strengths that you bring to it; as you know, this is a subjective business and another agent may be a better match. I do thank you for thinking of me and I wish you all the best in placing your work elsewhere.

Thanks for the heads up, orangrila.
I've got a query from March 1st, so now I'm wondering if she'll reject it in time for me to send something else before the deadline... Actually, I think people like me are why she's received 4k+ queries.

Another tweet from Stephanie today: "With 4k+ mss I have not been able to achieve a 4-wk reply. I will get to your sub ASAP. Plz only one sub per authr. Thx 4 patience!"
Stephanie tweeted yesterday that she's closing soon to submissions: "...will be closing to unsolicited submissions 5.15.16, so send your ms already! " She was originally planning to accept queries until July 25, so she must be swamped indeed!
