And an Update on That Last Note...

Two more replies in the bucket this morning, both formulaic auto-replies:

Dear Author,

Thank you for your query. I will respond within three weeks if interested. If you do not receive a response within three weeks then I have passed on your project.

Please note that a pass should not be construed as a statement on your work's publishing viability; it is just my subjective determination that the project isn't a good fit for me and the agency. I encourage you to continue your querying and wish you the best of success in your publishing endeavors.

Sincerely,

and

Thank you for your query. Due to the large number of submissions I receive every day, I am unfortunately unable to respond personally to them all. If I am interested in reading your work, I will respond within three weeks. If you do not hear from me in that time, then I have decided I’m not the right agent for your work – no “rejection” letter will be sent.

Best wishes, 

So am I, still waiting....
