WaPo’s DeNeen L. Brown: Single-minded success

Helena Andrews is 29, single, living in D.C., and might be the star of a black "Sex and the City" — stylish, beautiful and a writer desperately in search of love in the city.

Andrews’s life appears charmed: The film rights for her memoir, "Bitch Is the New Black," a satirical look at successful young black women living in Washington, were purchased before the book was finished. Shonda Rhimes, the executive producer of "Grey’s Anatomy," is set to produce the film and Andrews will write the screenplay.
