Does anyone know if AM Heath is no from one = no from all? The rejection letter sounds as if it is, but their website doesn't make it clear.

Form letter, "wish you luck", from "Submissions AM Heath & Co Ltd". Rejection came back about 2 weeks ahead of the "six weeks" they stated it would take. Probably didn't get much past the initial reader. But getting a response is a bit better than not getting one. Also, I classed this as a bit of a longshot.

Personal Note: I did get the confirmation that my query was sent. I sent two queries for two different "books". I did that because I'm hoping to find an agent that would like both however if that doesn't happen, I'd hope that they would like at least one. *Fingers crossed am I right?* I did also explain that, while I'm not trying to rush them... I just want to make sure they received it. I had problems in the past with sending my query letter. The agent explained that they never received it so I had to resubmit it. They could have emailed me my rejection letter *covers face* and I never received it. If anything changes, I will edit this. Good luck all! I hope your submission process is successful.
