ZSAC speaks!

An email from ZSAC's assistant:

"Many thanks for offering Zadie Smith's Agent's Colleague the opportunity to consider your novel CLIPPED for representation, and apologies for the long delay in responding to your initial approach.

Though Zadie Smith's Agent's Colleague read the sample you sent her with interest, I'm afraid she does not feel sufficiently passionate about the material to take things further with you at present.

I am sorry to disappoint after all this time."

Email from Nikki:

"hey ho. I thought they weren't his scene last year. then he said they were. now he says they're not. sorry bout this. xxx. N"

She forwards a mail from Mr Willy Fresh:

"Thanks for showing me to Rob Gunns' website. It's very entertaining, especially the account of all his agent rejections; but I have to admit that makes me wary. What I read of his book seemed bright and intelligent enough, but I'm afraid serial killers, wherever located, aren't really my speed."

Note to Mr Willy- agent rejections shouldn't make you wary. It happens to everyone. Even J.K.Rowling (See July 28 2005).
