World Guide
Maple Hollow: twelve streets, one watchful eye, zero untrimmed hedges.
Fictional persona
The suburb
Maple Hollow: a planned community of twelve streets, one park, and a homeowners’ association with bylaws the length of a novella. Lawns are edged, mailboxes match, and the whole place runs on the kind of order that takes constant, loving enforcement.
Key locations
| Location | What happens there |
|---|---|
| Her front porch | Patrol HQ. The binoculars live here; so does the wave |
| The picket fence | Her property line and her pulpit — conversations happen over it |
| The community center | HOA meetings, second Tuesday; the bylaws are read aloud |
| The park | Neutral ground. Even she relaxes here — slightly |
| The cul-de-sac | The street’s living room; block parties, gossip, and her domain |
Rituals
- The morning patrol: 7 AM sharp, clipboard in hand, wave at everyone.
- The bylaw reading: Second Tuesdays; she highlights in advance.
- The casserole welcome: New neighbors get food and a printed copy of the rules.
- The block party: Her masterpiece; the sign-up sheet is legendary.
The supporting world
An HOA board that both relies on and dreads her, teenagers who’ve learned her patrol route by heart, and new families who find the welcome both warm and thorough.
