I feel like I've already read this email

Another rejection today. I could see the preview of the letter on my phone, but it cut out just after "I don't think I'm the right age... "

At the time I was driving home from an event where I had to give an impromptu speech and I was just relieved I didn't screw it up too bad then I saw the email. I wanted to pull over and read it on the side of the road, that way I could kick up dirt or punch a road sign, but the kids were already in the car too long so I just sat there for over an hour thinking what the hell does age have to do with it.

Here I am thinking maybe I wrote a kid/middle grade/YA only agent, but then I saw who it was and I knew she accepted adult. Then I started to get optimistic for some reason and thought it was going to say something like "not the right age, but I know a great agent who will be perfect." Or even better maybe something like "but I've decided to make an exception just for you!"

It didn't say anything like that. It said "not the right ageNT for you." Then it went on and said the exact same thing as the last one. It's OK.

I still have the full MS out to one agent. And I have a couple queries out to my original top two choices. I also still have one in to an agent that seems to be really nice. She's probably the least likely, but I really think she would be great so I have my fingers crossed.
