Fiona Robyn's The Letters 
About The LettersViolet Ackerman has drifted through a career, four children and a divorce without ever knowing who she is or what she wants. After moving to the coast, she starts receiving a series of mysterious letters sent from a mother and baby home in 1959, written by a pregnant twenty-year-old Elizabeth to her best friend. These letters intersperse Violet's turbulent relationships with her lover, her infuriating son and the eccentric fellow members of the Village Committee. Who is sending Violet these letters, and why? What will happen to Elizabeth's baby? 'The Letters' invites us see what happens when we don't run away. Will love be enough to encourage Violet to stay? Fiona Robyn is a new young author we're delighted to have unearthed. Caroline Smailes, author of In Search of Adam, said that she "totally, utterly and absolutely enjoyed" Fiona's recent work of poetry, and Snowbooks will be publishing all three of Fiona's full-length novels. Fiona teaches creative writing and has a firm following amongst the blogosphere including guest spots on Steve Stack's blog, Ian Hocking's This Writing Life, Aliya Whiteley and Neil Ayres's blog (both Macmillan authors), and 17 other blogs. Sarah Salway called her recent 'Small Stones' project "a brilliant idea" and Fiona is a regular speaker at literary events. Fiona's novels are in the same vein as Anita Shreve - rooted in exquisite observation, delicately written and pacey as the best thriller. There will be signed copies available, extensive online marketing drawing on Fiona's established blogging network and budget for marketing spend. Key sales points |
