'Fi's Ability - a memoir' is a charming stroll through a daughter's early years, and more recently, her experience spending lockdown with her blind, slightly deaf, cynical and wobbly nonagenarian mother. 'On my Mother's Life' is a cry for help, well... that's how social services interpreted it. Throughout lockdown, many people spent more time with their family than they were comfortable with; the letters convey just how a mother and daughter muddled along. Gin features heavily to deal with the daily frustrations. Following this, 'Adventures of a Ginger Girl' is a charming peep at a childhood in Cornwall, through the eyes of a permanently red girl with strong opinions and extremely big knickers.

Fiona Ritchie was born in Cornwall and is now living in the beautiful countryside of Bedfordshire, with her mother. Fiona took to writing as an escape from a stressful period in her life, and found it helped focus her mind, as well as cheering herself up. Fiona is now a full-time carer for her mum, and continues to write letters.
