and regularly sent me work by the likes of Margaret Drabble, Marina Warner, William Trevor, Ruth Rendell, Helen Simpson and Mary Gordon. She was always straightforward and honest to deal with, and I particularly appreciated the way she would ask me to 'go up a bit more' when she knew that a particular writer was short of money. I always obliged, because I knew she wouldn't have been asking without good reason--and I was moved by her evident care for her writers.
