Rejection No. 2

Well.... It happened again. Less happy with this one, but I guess I have no choice but to soldier on and continue to submit. This one came from Folio.

Thank you for your recent email and your interest in Folio. We are always
eager to hear from writers who are serious about the business of writing;
unfortunately I do not feel that I'm the right representative for your work.

I have to be very selective of what I choose to represent and all of my
decisions are based on a frank assessment of the current needs of the
literary markets. The fact that this work doesn't fit my narrow criteria
for representation does not mean it couldn't find a home elsewhere. I urge
you to submit your work to other agencies or management companies that may
be more suited to this type of material. If you have other work you wish to
submit, please feel free to query again.

All best,


Makes me sad. Oh well, I shall eat chocolate and play Wii until I feel better.

Well, at least it was Easter weekend that that tends to come with lots of chocolate... lol!

As I am in a cheering-up sort of mood, one I am sure that would annoy you most days, I provide to you these:
