Model Sophie Dahl (and granddaughter of children's book author Roald Dahl) has secured a six-figure book deal for a novel that hasn't been written yet. Her last book—a fairy tale called The Girl with the Dancing Eyes—received mixed reviews, but Dahl cites her literary agent's confidence as proof of her ability. (Agent Alexandra Pringle "is convinced Dahl has a 'marvellous novel' in her.")
