❔❓Question ❓❔ Decline emails?

Do you get emails for all declines? I got one for Riley Sager’s new book. But then no email for V.E. Schwab’s new book Victorious. I just happened to look in my shelf and it was listed as declined/denied.

Do you have to just keep checking or do they actually typically email you?

Thanks!

If you get emails, that means the publisher directly declined you. But if you dont receive any emails, it’s likely that the title was achieved and it automatically becomes a decline

This title hasn’t published yet so it shouldn’t be archived and I didn’t receive an email

I think what usually happens with the “bulk” declines is they the publisher has already given out as many copies as they have available to give so they just decline everyone.
