I'm writing this mostly in annoyance to the fact that I've now gotten my 13th rejection letter, this one from an agent who requested a full copy of the manuscript.
The one thing I don't get -- and I don't know I ever will, unless I become a literary agent myself -- is what makes a book the right fit for an agent. I've researched these people, plied them with my query letters, have created a "compelling concept," a "vivid world" that I've put "a lot of care into creating" (mushing together a few different agents' words here), but I'm still rejected because Seafear is "not the right fit."
I don't know. It just doesn't make sense to me.
