I think what this person is trying to say is, please do not send me your book. And I kind of get it. I've had to read slush, I've rejected many thousands of manuscripts. You get to your desk in the morning, and every day there's another stack of envelopes (in those days it was all paper). You spend an hour sending it all back where it came from. Virtually all of it completely hopeless. Once in a great while there's something with some potential. The thing about slush is not that most of it is particularly bad, it's particularly nothing at all. A lot of people do have a book in them. Unfortunately, it's not much different from the other 20 or so that arrived the same day.
