I got the following response from an agent. I'm slightly worried about what she said about the tone. I'm very direct, bold and don't mince words. I write in short, punchy sentences. But this is my STYLE. What do you make of this response?

Many thanks for sending this over to me.
You have poured so much into this and it shows – it’s laced with passion and deep emotion and is an impressive achievement. I’m sorry, then, that I just don’t think the approach or the tone resonates for me and without my own vision for and confidence in the book, I wouldn’t be your best agent or advocate.
Thank you again for thinking of me and I wish you the very best in finding a good home for your work.
Best wishes,
Sophie
