It was a great experience from start to finish, I found both Boo and Natasha to be very kind and compassionate and most importantly the story I sold was a true and accurate account of what happened to me. I can't thank you enough, who ever would have thought I would make the front page of the Daily Mail!' Gaynor Curtis (above), who sold her story to the Daily Mail. More testimonials......	I was a size 00 and suffering from severe anorexia, but was still deemed too fat to be a model. When former catwalk model Inga got in touch with us with her story about her battle with anorexia and how her career was responsible, we knew she had a story newspapers would want. We ended up with two of the country's biggest papers bidding for her story, which we sold to the Sunday Mirror. Our clients feature in newspapers, magazines and on television every week.
