“These stories are everywhere, but rarely told; Fiona’s experiences are hugely common and yet unique to her; anybody reading it will both be reassured by her deft wit and resilience and also in awe of what she has been through. It is essential reading for anybody who has, too, faced hard times – and those who are yet to.”

“Hutchings is an incredibly inspiring and incisively witty poet who has created work that resonates and educates whilst being remarkably entertaining. Her stage persona is captivating – she invites you into her life like a friend and hearing the stories in her poetry of her survival and determination in the face of near-death experiences was humbling.”
