…which was something of a nice surprise, because I had assumed the agent wouldn’t bother to reply at all – it being nearly four months since I sent the manuscript.
Again, not a bad rejection, although I suspect it’s a form note.
Second Rejection

Well, I can’t say congrats, but at least it’s news. Good luck!
Based on personal experience and general points I’ve picked up etc, due to the extensive slush piles agents, producers, publishers et al have four months is pretty much a standard time to wait for a response. I usually give up after about 6 months.
