Yes Man

I, Danny Wallace, being of sound mind and body, do hereby write this manifesto for my life. I swear I will be more open to opportunity. I swear I will live my life taking every available chance. I will say Yes to every favour, request, suggestion and invitation. I will swear to say yes where once i would say no.' Danny Wallace had been staying in. Far too much. Having been dumped by his girlfriend, he really wasn't doing the young, free and single thing very well. Instead, he was avoiding people. Texting them instead of calling them. Calling them instead of meeting them. That is until that one fateful date when a mystery man on a late-night bus told him to 'Say Yes more'. These three simple words changed Danny's life forever. Yes Man is the story of what happened when Danny decided to say yes to everything, in order to make his life more interesting. And boy, did it get more interesting. Danny Wallace does things few other people would and writes about them in ways that few people could. He's as funny as Bill Bryson used to be. - Nicholas Barber, Independent on Sunday .

The Book Behind the Jim Carrey Film

In recent years Danny Wallace's star has been rising beyond all expectation. And it could be said that this rise is largely due to the events that took place as he was saying yes more. Recently this heart warming and funny tale was turned into a major movie starring Jim Carrey. But read the book to get the full story.

The outpourings of a madman

Danny Wallace finally leaves Dave Gorman in his shadow and embarks on an odyssey to say 'Yes!' to everything. Unexpected consequences ensure including a half-decent performance by Jim Carrey in the film of the same name.....

Can We? Yes We Can!

The concept is straight but the book was so great they said 'Yes' to it becoming a movie!

Yes!

depressed? friends forgetting tov invite you down the pub? Well stop saying no and start saying yes! This is exactly what Danny Wallace starts doing after meeting a stranger on a bus who tells him to say "yes" more often.
After recanting the stry to frineds Danny decides he is going to fulfill his obligation to say yes and so he sets off on a journey of self discovery.
From "Would you like a copy of the Big issue?" to "What you staring at?" Danny says "yes to it all"
The book is an excellent read and will make you think about everything you ever said no to. So say "yes!" and pick up a copy today.
