Leigh Russell, Crime Thriller Author for No Exit Press "Annette is a much-loved 'live wire' of British publishing. She is a very successful sales person and a great character. She is vivacious, fun and a joy to work with." Kathy Gale, Executive coach and mentor, psychotherapist and counsellor, writing coach "Annette is highly efficient and effective in sales -- I first knew her in 1981 when we both worked at Faber & Faber. She has, too, an acute eye for writing talent. A much-valued friend to me and many others, sensitive in her dealings with authors and colleagues, she also has a splendid sense of humour." Hazel Orme
