Dear xx,
Thank you for sending me your query. You're a skilled writer, but I'm afraid I just didn't fall in love with this plot enough to feel I'd be your best champion. It's a subjective response, I know, and I also know another agent will disagree and connect with this wholeheartedly.
I wish you the best of luck on your path to publication.
Sincerely,
Danielle

How long would you wait before considering a query sent to this agent as a Closed No Response?

she responded quickly to my upmarket women's fiction with what I am able to confirm as a form rejection..because someone below got the same one. "You're a skilled writer....etc etc." Oh well.

While she felt the book was not for her, she gave very throughtul and encouraging feedback. This reinforced my perception that she is engaged and talented agent.
