I'm hoping it's a standard reply - makes it feel less like she didn't like Deception and more like she just didn't want to take it on. Same thing technically, but it makes me feel betterNo, I'd say a standard reply, sorry.

Café Life is the Colony's main hangout, watering hole and meeting point.
This is a place where you'll meet and make writing friends, and indulge in stratospherically-elevated wit or barometrically low humour.
Some Colonists pop in religiously every day before or after work. Others we see here less regularly, but all are equally welcome. Two important grounds rules…
We now allow political discussion, but strongly suggest it takes place in the Steam Room, which is a private sub-forum within Café Life. It’s only accessible to Full Members.

I see what you mean — it really could go either way. I feel like if they were ground to draft a form rejection letter, they would have written a better one, you know? It feels jotted down and shot off — this may well be a personal rejection.One more for me. I can't tell if this is personalized or not. Kind of hoping not.
Thanks so much for sending along the sample pages of Deception. I’m sorry to say, though, that I just wasn’t as completely drawn in by the material as much as I had hoped. What with my reservations, I’d better bow out.
Thanks so much for contacting me, though! I really appreciate it, and wish you the best of luck.

I guess all the agents are catching up on their email at the same time lolOh my! Got a rejection too.
Why did I check email at 4am...why?!

Two rejections in 24 hours... bummmerrr. Ah well, off to submit another query.
Absolutely!Can I put my 35 short story rejections from July through the beginning of October here? That was hella polarizing for me...
So out of 1,500 authors that submitted to Hodderscape, I wasn't one of the ones they went with. That one stings, as I was allowed to submit the full MS of both book 1 and book 2, to them.
WHEW. Deep breath. Okay, I'm good. Life goes on!
Now they know the jaw-dropping plot twist I've kept under wraps for five years, but the good news is they don't care! Hahahaha... eh heh... WAAAAAAHHHH!
Is it, like insanely-high and banshee-like? I hear that too.I can hear the wailing in my head. Make it stop! For the love of all things pure please make it stop!
Dong, rejection from Jabberwocky in just 2 days!!
