Humor | Women's Fiction

Writer, comedienne, and full–time Blonde, Selena Coppock offers up adventures, misadventures, and golden–hued nuggets of wisdom in a laugh–out–loud anthem for those of us who really do have more fun. . . .

The modern blonde is savvy, wise, confident, capable, and not afraid to laugh at herself when the occasion calls for it. She knows who she is and is prepared to subvert all stereotypes (although she's not above wielding her golden tresses to her advantage), and knows how to be both classy and a little brassy.

In the way only a Boston–bred New Yorker who once won "Best Hair" in her high school graduating class could, Coppock doles out tongue–in–cheek advice about avoiding hair disasters, the consequences of dating a man who cares a little too much about his own hair product, and so much more in an outrageous essay collection that will have even the staunchest of raven–haired beauties considering a trip to the nearest salon.

Re: The New Rules for Blondes

I like the concept and think that you have an original voice that will lend humor to the book. Great job!

It sounds like a good book. I enjoy reading books with humour in them especially when you are having a bad day, and need a good laugh :)

Do these rules apply to old ladies with gray hair?
Blessings,

I've never been a blonde except in my 20s when I loved wearing wigs during Tax Season.
Would love to read it.

You did what you wanted to do and now you can lay back and reap the rewards and sense of accomplishment.

I'm not a blonde and never was one, but I think that if you don't laugh at life, you're missing out on so much!! My Husband doesn't understand my humor, and tells me half the time that I'm demented anyway, while my friends think I'm witty and amusing and understand me. Go figure!! I would love to read your book, and pass it on to any of my blonde friends who need a lift!!

This book sounds so good.

I love the idea! And I love books containing humor. I prefer to laugh, not cry, when reading.

Having a very blonde daughter, I love blonde humor. You make me exhausted just reading what you went through!
