More blue-ink scrawled “we don’t represent your genre” messages…
From Scott Treimel Agency:
Ms. Write—
We represent authors of children’s books exclusively.

Mary Leigh Krasnieuicz
(Oops. Don’t know how that one slipped through the cracks. Oh well, it happens.)
From Linda Konner:
Dear Ms. Write,
Thanks for getting in touch, but I handle only how-to books. Best of luck.
L. Konner
(I’m pretty sure that wasn’t clear from her entry. It would have saved us both the effort had she clarified what sort of books she represents.)
From Joan Raines (this writing is really sloppy):
Sorry, not for me.
J.
