Fellow Author Maritere- Tio Ricky Doesn’t Speak English

Zoe had the chance to meet Maritere, the author of Tio Ricky Doesn’t Speak English at The Frugal Frigate in Redlands.

Zoe asked her what advice she has for a young, self-published author, and Maritere didn’t just answer- she poured into her! They talked about Zoe’s Christmas story, shared their books with each other, and gave Zoe the kindest words of encouragement.

And exciting news-Zoe will be doing her own book reading at the Frugal Frigate on December 13,2025 at 3pm Her books will also be available for purchase at the store.
