Poop Snoop Reviews

Poopsnoop; not to be confused with Poop Scoop, or Snoop Dogg, is a new review website I think will do really well. It has only recently been launched but I keep checking and the user base and number of good quality informative reviews keeps growing.

The beauty of the site as I see it is you not only get the review info but you also get a profile on the reviewer (or Snooper) so you can assess if your tastes/lifestyle are similar and therefore make a reasoned judgement whether the review is pertinent to you.

Also the reviews are moderated and rated by the users, majority rule acting as a natural filter, a bit like Yahoo answers, so I think this maybe a new site to watch. Great idea, great design and great purpose, a winning combination.

New Book By Shirley Yanez

The Sport Of Seduction, Every Man's Guide To Getting Laid.

When romance is as dead as the new romantics, having sex for real is no longer on the minds of women. They'd rather go to bed, metaphorically speaking, with Christian Grey, the fictional leading man in 50 Shades of Grey.

Shirley's pitch for her new book is "A laugh out loud read for any man interested in becoming as essential to womankind as the battery in a sex maniacs vibrator." an accurate description I think.


We started working on this together in 2004, just after LFHW was published, for a little light relief and something to do to keep our minds off how terrible things were at that time but since we came back to the UK it had almost been forgotten about.


When all of a sudden the 50 Shades phenomenon happened and it was clear women weren't getting what they needed from their men at home, the time was right for the men's "How To Get Laid" guide to come out for a spin. When we reread it after 8 years we couldn't believe how hilarious it was and know once people start reading it, both men and women are going to love it. Shirley is working on the sister book for women due out in September, Hook, Lie and Sink Him, Every Girl's Guide To The Sport Of Seduction, so look out for that.


The great thing now if you have a manuscript you believe in and want to have a go at marketing it, Kindle/Amazon are there with amazing free tools to produce and sell your ebook. We were even able to produce a simple ebook cover for free thanks to www.myecovermaker.com, so anyone can do it.


The Sport Of Seduction is available to download from Kindle for £1.53, but you can get a free taster, the first 5 pages is enough to draw a smile or two. Hope you enjoy!!!!!!!!

Work At What You Love

The Hollywood Look For Less

and never work again. It is true however sometimes the transition from the life you have created, mortgage, credit card bills, car payment etc. keeps you stuck doing something you hate.
Probably the most fantastic thing that happened when we lost everything and commenced our comeback from homelessness was having the freedom to do absolutely anything. Ironically our natural urge to rush and take any job for survival and become trapped again in the system was not to be, we were too old. We were forced to do something else to survive. From our passion for fashion and styling came The Hollywood Look For Less show, teaching the women of our forgotten generation all was not lost, even if money was tight. Who would have thought we could create this amazing show and life with no money and a bunch of second clothes from charity shops. You see, once you put your back into something you are good at and really believe in, then get some momentum behind it, amazing things can happen. It is our goal to get a TV platform to help women rediscover their power, not an easy challenge in middle age, but undaunted we continue to work towards that. We have found the secrets to youth, beauty, style and happiness without money for real, valuable, relevant information particularly now as everyone is feeling the pinch financially. Women 40 plus feel neglected in the style stakes, the High Street has forgotten this 5.7 billion pound market and we know this audience is sick of being ignored so we keep shouting.

It is funny thing, change. Shirley, my mentor and lifecoach has a great analogy. When you decide to stop changing make sure you are ecstatic with everything you are, everything you think and everything you have because that is where you stay, stuck. (quite a frightening thought when put like that) We are afraid of change in the most part because we think we know best but be open because with it comes the most extraordinary insight and growth.  You only ever know what you know until you know something new. When you change you find things you believed with all your heart to be true (and would have argued black and blue to defend) are quite simply not reality. As we all face the impact of a world that has run out of money one thing that is always true, things could always be worse. So be grateful, bold and recognise if you are unhappy at work you do have the power within.
