Got a very nice letter from an agent today:
“Thank you so much for letting me review EARTHBEAT, but I’m going to decline at this time. Unfortunately, your beginning just isn’t pulling me in the way I had hoped. I know you’ve put a lot of time and effort into your project. Take heart: the publishing industry is very subjective, so what may not work for me could be just what another agency is looking for. I strongly encourage you to continue your pursuit of publication.”
Don’t you think that’s a good letter? I’m going to take a good hard look at my first chapter and see if I can improve it.
