Well... these things happen.

From "Crossed Genres" - an online publishing company I submitted Bags and Pockets to a while back:

First, please let me apologize for taking so long to get back to you. Crossed Genres grew faster than we expected, and we were forced to prioritize our immediate needs. The length of time of our response doesn't in any way reflect on your submission - only on how overwhelmed we were.

We've decided that your novel submission "Bags N Pockets" isn't right for us. Thank you for sharing it. We wish you good luck in placing it with another publisher.

A pretty nice rejection, all in all. So... on to other things and other publishers.
