Got the same fake advice form rejection as others and was confused by it before I realized it was a copy paste. I wish agents would take care to not pretend a rejection is personalized—someone might needlessly rework their query letter over it.

Q 09/28/2025 Fantasy 98k... And then I saw the message saying she is currently not interested by the kind of fantasy I sent. Hopes are low on that one, but that's my fault for not having read her guidelines as carefully as I should have.
