Adult Celtic folklore inspired Romantasy 126k.

Thank you so much for querying me with - ! While I love the idea, 126,000 is a bit high for us to sell as a debut author. It's tough, but unfortunately, that's the standard we're working with right now.

However, if you end up revising the manuscript, please feel free to query me again!

Best of luck.

A really nice rejection! I'm going to work on the novel to reduce the size, hopefully to closer to 100k and I will resubmit.
