Hill’s clever comic novellas are awash with the crazy antics of his crazy character, Maureen. Fresh and funny (with a smidgen of real life–we’ve all met a Maureen!) he takes you to places and situations and lets you see them through the eyes of a ‘means well, really’ middle-aged battle axe Maureen. B sure to grab yourself a copy.

If Maureen were real, I would advise you to avoid her like the plague. She somehow attracts disaster and farce in equal measure wherever she goes.
As she is fictional though, it should be safe enough for you to encounter her from behind your Kindle.
Maureen had a disastrous trip to a modern art exhibition in ECLECTIC: Ten Very Different Tales. Well, now she’s back in her own feature-length adventure!
The book will give you plenty of laughs and a taste of Italy, so join hapless Maureen on her Venetian break and just be glad you’re not there with her!

Run away! Hide anything she might
break! But this time, that might include
your heart.” (Amazon reviewer – January 2013)
When it’s Maureen’s turn to chair the local book group meeting, choosing a new
outfit turns out to be the least of her worries. A secret confided in Maureen by a fellow
reader impacts on her life greatly over the following year. Then comes a revelation which could change
the way Maureen lives her life altogether.
The disaster-prone Maureen, recently recovered from her comic mishaps in
Venice, stars in a story that is both hilarious and heartbreaking.
A novella of ~18,500 words. This is the
second to be published in the Maureen series, but the book can be read as a
stand-alone story.
