ABOUT THE AUTHOR
Maree MacLean began her career as a writer at Television New Zealand during the dot-com boom. Her work-hard, play-even-harder lifestyle led to burnout, so she flew the coup landing in Hong Kong during its first outbreak of SARS. Maree hightailed it across the border into Canton and fell in love with life in China where she remained for five and a half years.
More than twenty countries visited, and one Danish husband later, Maree returned to New Zealand speaking Mandarin and Danish, which didn’t get her very far at all! She already had a drinking problem and after the death of her brother, it spiralled out of control. It took moving to Waiheke Island for Maree to finally knock the booze on the head. Maree is happiest in or on the water, she loves sailing and sailboats, especially if they are racing. Maree write a very popular monthly newsletter called unf*ck yourself.
