Review of America the Beautiful Documentary and contest to win a Limited Edition copy of the DVD

One of the first questions Darryl Roberts asks in his documentary America the Beautiful is “Who benefits from women not feeling beautiful?” As the film spends the next 105 minutes trying to find the answers to that question, you witness the full impact of our obsession with beauty through tales of girls with eating disorders, plastic surgeries gone wrong, and the whirlwind modeling career of Gerren Taylor who did her first runway shows at the age of 12.Roberts, who undertook this project after…See More

Could the Tide Be Turning?

First there was the image of Lizzie Miller, sitting naked, belly resting on her lap, and looking confident in the pages of Glamour magazine.

Then there was designer Mark Fast’s move to feature plus-sized models on the runway during London’s Fashion Week. Not long after that, we heard that France is…See More

Summer Survival Tips for Work at Home Moms

How ironic that I gathered material to write this article over a month ago, but because I am NOT good at managing my time, particularly with my kids home full time for the summer, I was not able to get to the tips OR article until now.But I drank a pot of coffee today, determined to get this article written, and finally published it! If only I had read these tips and started implementing them from day 1 after school was out!I hope others find this article useful.…See More

Thanks! I didn't see the Virginia group. I'll definitely check it out. I used to live in Annapolis and the surrounding areas (Arnold for a while). I still love Annapolis! Beautiful city.

Trying to gain fans for my Facebook fan page

By now we all know about the mad dash on Facebook last month to secure personalized Facebook URLs. Unfortunately, they placed limits on the fan pages for securing the URLs, and so far I do not yet meet the criteria to get Facebook.com/VenusVision. At this time I only have 37 fans, and I need 100 to get the URL.I've tried spreading the word about my fan page, but can't seem to get more people to join. I am posting about it here in hopes that my new SheWrites friends can support the VenusVision…See More
