EQ 25th March 2023 - Romantic Fiction
Form rejection 25th April 2023:

Thank you for your submission to the Darley Anderson Literary, TV and Film Agency and thank you for your patience whilst your work was under consideration.

Whilst Tanera was intrigued by the premise, I am afraid that she did not feel quite gripped enough to absolutely fall in love with your concept.

As an Agency, we feel that it is immensely important for new writers to have an agent who believes completely in the potential of their work to sell and who can therefore take that enthusiasm to the publishers. Accordingly, we need to feel passionately about a writer’s work before we sign them onto the agency.

We receive over 600 manuscripts a week and can only take on a select number of debut writers every year. The result is that we have to be incredibly selective, so please do not be disheartened. Another agent may well feel differently.

I wish you the very best of luck in finding the agent who will be right for you.

All my best,

Laura
