Simple question, you would think. A great book that they're in love with and want to make a lot of money on.
This is what I don't understand. I sent queries to agents that take my genre YA mystery/thrillers. Some just thrillers with some agents still showing an interest even though it's YA.
Here's my question. I sent my query to an agent that accepts all genres except exotica and she liked the query and requested the full. She got back to me saying she was very impressed with how I executed the story but unfortunately it isn't what she's looking for at the moment. I don't understand why she would ask for the full in the first place then. I mean, why would she?
And then they're are those agents that you think are the perfect fit, liking exactly what you write, and they come back with "It's not what I'm looking for."
I know there's a thread about this somewhere, but I haven't seen one lately. Can someone explain why agents do this?
