Thank you for sending us your idea for our review. Unfortunately, I’m afraid I must disappoint you. Your project doesn’t quite fit what we are looking for and having success in representing at the moment. This is a highly subjective business, however, so it may be that you would be better served by another agency.

Our best to you in your quest for publication.

Sincerely,

Notified offer of rep 8/13

RG, assistant to Bob Hostetler

Form Rejection: "Thank you for sending us your idea for our review. Unfortunately, Bob isn’t able to offer representation on the basis of this project.
The immense number of proposals and the intense nature of the competition in the marketplace causes us to be highly selective. It may be that you would be better served by another agency."

Downside: it was from his assistant and shows that my query was not properly read as it was regarding a complete novel and not a "proposal"
Upside: At least they are not keeping me guessing.....

If you don't hear back from Bob in 60 days it's a closed/rejection
