Daniel Bial Agency / Daniel Bial Editing

Has anyone any experience with this agency? It seems that Mr.Bial has a particularly bad press from what I have found.

Let's start with the good part first. There are 32 hits I found on Amazon, which means he's got $. The books are mostly self-helps / how to's & bibliographys.

Now for the bad parts. An old post claiming that Mr.Bail charges fees.

Also crisom red 'NOT RECOMMENDED' in P&E, http://www.anotherealm.com/prededitors/peald.htm

This is Mr.Bial's contact:

Setting aside the conflict of interest issues with his consulting and editing services, I'd ask both Writer Beware and P&E if they're still getting reports of him charging fees as an agent.
