Querying writers, I'm interested: Would you rather receive a rejection (on a full manuscript) right before the holidays or right after?
I received a rejection on a full last night from an agent who had the manuscript for 4+ months. To me, it seemed unnecessarily harsh, considering the wait and the lack of usable feedback (and the impending arrival of family who will undoubtedly ask me about manuscripts, etc.). I realize others may feel differently, though.
So what's your opinion: Pre-holiday or post-holiday rejection?
