Personal Note: I have sent a follow-up email just to know if there were any issues with my email. I had a problem with two of my emails going through as blank. Anyway, If anything changes... I will edit this.

"Hello,
Many thanks for sending through your work. After consideration, I’m afraid I won’t be offering representation.
Unfortunately, it’s impossible to give individual feedback on every project we receive, but there are a multitude of reasons any agent may pass on your work – similar projects on their list, current workload, can’t see the right route to market, industry feedback on market trends etc. And as with all art, there is a subjective response to writing.
As an author in a fiercely competitive market, you need an agent who can be an absolute champion of you and your writing. Best of luck finding the right agent for your work.
Best wishes,
Sam"
