User feedback

Got a response in about three weeks, which (despite other feedback complaining about this) is pretty good (some take months). Was just a standard slip, though, addressed to "Dear Author". An actual pen had touched it to squiggle near the bottom, though!

Couldn't see anything wrong with the punctuation, as reported in other feedback (and I'm a Senior Editor for one of the largest publishers in the world). Bit of a case of sour grapes on Hugh's part, I think.

My submission was returned unread after nearly three weeks with a pre-printed note whose punctuation was so poor that I should be amazed if any publisher took up a writer recommended by this agent. Best avoided altogether, but if you must, send a summary but nothing more and be prepared to wait.
