Debut British author Heather Hill has released an inspirational comedy novel for women, 'The New Mrs D.' Her incredibly funny & original novel has been published as an e-book with assistance from her prestigious, London-based literary agency.
The book was officially released on the 4th of July, yet went straight in to the Amazon UK 100 Best Sellers Chart for Women's Fiction Humour after just twenty four hours of being made available for pre-order.
It is a sharp-witted, empowering and hilarious romp about one woman's midlife awakening on a honeymoon... alone.
When funny, feisty, forty-something Bernice plans the adventure trip of a lifetime, she doesn't expect to be spending it alone. But as it turns out, contributing to a Greek fish explosion, naked karaoke and misadventures with volcanoes are exactly what she needs to stop fretting about errant husbands and really start living.
About the author:
From her humble beginnings on Twitter, posting lines like:
'You know, swinging children upside down really opens doors for you', Heather Hill began to amass a large following of people enjoying her daily comedy ramblings. She went on to write for live comedy shows, for local comedians (one of whom won an award while using some of her material) and eventually submitted scripts for television. With no paid work forthcoming, she also began writing a unique comedy blog of errors, taking a readership of one (thanks Mr Hill) to the 9.7k following it has today.
To date Heather Hill's blog has had over 13,000 hits.
The New Mrs D is a unique breed of women's commercial fiction and is available on Amazon for just £1.99!
'The New Mrs D is a refreshing, sharp-witted and empowering romp that reflects real life, delves into unspoken about subjects and slaps the reader in the face with honesty.' - Fleur Ferris, author.
'The perfect setting for a hilarious update to Eat, Pray, Love' - Tara Gladden, Editor
