The Coffee Letters

Espresso, flat white, mocha or cold brew.

Each cup of coffee is as particular as the person drinking it.

And they all have a story to tell.

These fictional musings are my caffeine-inspired creations

which are crafted to be enjoyed as a single shot or savoured one sip at a time.

I am Christina Fotinelli, writer of TV comedy and comic flash fiction. Very simply, I created The Coffee Letters to make people laugh. These short stories are slightly odd and mostly about everyday things that could, possibly, potentially, perhaps happen to any of us. The idea is simple: if we can meet life's twists and turns with a smile, a pinch of salt, and a lightness of heart, things may feel a little less heavy.

As a life-long grump, I have found this approach to be soothing and surprisingly effective.

Alongside The Coffee Letters, I'm writing and developing sitcoms and TV comedy series -

different formats, same intention: to make people laugh and feel a little more seen (and sane!)

Coming soon, The Coffee Letters will be adapted into short films.

A web series is also planned for production in late 2025. Get in touch to learn more.

A blend of fictional amuse-bouches about the coffee people drink and the letters they write.They are also about the letters people write when they drink coffee.

Or if you prefer, they're about people who like to drink coffee while writing letters.
