First there was eco-vegan-shoes - exactly as it sounds.Then there was airline-shoes - again exactly as it sounds. But there was a problem - the owner and the less said here about that, the better.Watch this space, I have a few exciting plans in development.I have learned a lot on the way - using my writing skills to produce a hundreds of blogs; I also now have a wealth of online knowledge including web and social media.Specialties: Writing, website development, website promotion, management, and company start ups.
