Adult contemporary fantasy 120k words

11/25/25: Submitted query
12/12/25: "Though the concept was intriguing, your word count exceeds what I'm accepting for debut fiction in the genre you've written in. I am open to review the manuscript again after revisions are made that reflect market standards."

4/9/26: Re-submitted my 97k word revised contemporary fantasy
5/11/26: "Thank you for the opportunity to read [TITLE], which I have carefully considered but decided to decline. Please keep in mind that this is a very subjective field and while I found the premise of your novel very interesting, I wasn't as captivated as I needed to be at the line level. I'm sure another agent will feel differently and I hope this manuscript finds its way to someone who is ready to more passionately advocate for it soon."

"Thank you for the opportunity to read [Title], which I have carefully considered but decided to decline. I am sorry to say that I do not think this material would be right for me, and therefore I would not make your most effective advocate.

I apologize for the form reply, but the volume of queries I receive means that individual replies are impossible. This is the only way to ensure that every query gets a timely evaluation and response, and I appreciate your understanding.

If, however, you end up querying a new project in the future, I would of course be happy to consider it."
