Do as I say, not as I do.....

Probably the thing that pisses me off most about agents is their smug attitude when it comes to dealing with us lowly writers.  Here's something I ran across the other day.  The bold underlined parts are my emphasis.

Please note that we have a full client list and are only considering a few new clients a year. If you are interested in representation, please send a personalized query letter including a short biography citing your prior publishing credits, your media experience, and an overview or the first 5 pages of your manuscript in the body of the email to XXXXXXX@lindachester.com. Query emails sent to personal agency addresses will not be reviewed. Unfortunately, due to the overwhelming number of queries we receive, we can no longer respond to each one. We will contact you within four weeks if we are interested in your material. Snail mail submissions will not be reviewed.

Okay, so  what you're saying is you want us to give you the respect to PERSONALIZE our query to you, but you don't have the courtesy to send us back a rejection if you don't like it.  That takes a lot of gall if you ask me.  There should be an addendum that says, "Treat me like a fucking queen and I'll treat you like the shitty peasant you are."

If I'm going to take the time to write a fucking personalized letter to you assholes, you better take the time to say (at the very least), "no thanks."

What a bunch of lazy-ass, primadonnna losers.
