Sincerely, Delphia

by Miss Liz

Twenty-nine-year-old Delphia Marsh has exactly two skills: reading old letters and giving advice so bad it loops back around to being wise. When her estranged great-aunt, the beloved advice columnist 'Aunt Persimmon,' dies mid-column, the small town of Fig Hollow is left with 4,000 unanswered letters and a local paper on the brink. Delphia, the only relative willing to sort the mail, answers one letter on a dare. The paper prints it by accident. It goes viral. Now Delphia is ghost-writing for a dead woman, fending off the town's suspicious editor, and discovering her aunt's advice column was secretly the most powerful institution in three counties — one that several prominent citizens would very much like to keep buried. A warm, wry comedy about grief, small towns, and the fine art of being catastrophically honest.
