Anybody signed up with her?
What books/authors has she sold?

She's in Notting Hill.
She has a web site under construction.

Has a record of solid sales (RH, S&S, Orion, et al.), for both fiction and non-fiction. IMO, the only negative is her involvement with Chapter One Promotions (she judges their novel competition).

Our thread on Chapter One is here. Mostly a matter of dubious value and slow payment of prizes, if paid at all.

She turned me down. She says:

"Unfortunately given the large number of submissions received, we are not considering new material at present."

I know of her from Winchester as well, but I've never met her as she doesn't rep my genre. I seem to remember there being a chance to win lunch, or maybe a working breakfast, with her one year, which gave me the impression she was one of those flashy stilettos-and-gin type of London agents :)

Anyone know about Lorella Belli Agency in London? LABLA

I was wondering if anyone has heard of them. They're in the writers' handbook, founded in 2002, it's in London and is a member of the association of authors' agents, but their website has been under construction for absolutely ages.
Thanks
