The Vintage Wren is a serial novel released in several chapter episodes. Volume One contains the first four and a half episodes in one full-length novel.
Cassie Wren. Legal assistant. Convenience queen. Thrifter extraordinaire. If there was a "green police" she'd be a fugitive from eco-friendly justice.
But when a friend's teasing feels like a challenge, Cassie accepts it. The result? One year. Twelve months. Fifty-two weeks. Three hundred sixty-five days--of green.
It seemed simple enough. Cut back on paper plates, plastic forks, and straws. Easy peasy. But when her competitive side wars against her desire for convenience, Cassie finds it's not so easy to be "eco-friendly" and "Cassie-friendly."
January Shopping for Cassie's annual New Year's Eve party sparks an innocent comment that Cassie can't forget. So, during their New Year's Day goal planning session, Cassie's friends tease her about her lack of eco-consciousness, and Cassie determines to change one new thing in favor of the planet every week. For a year. Even if it kills her.
She's confident it will.
Cassie's first month includes eradicating the extraneous paper, glass, plastic, and metal from her life. However, she finds that it's not quite as easy as she thought. Paper and plastic cover everything manufactured or packaged--even water, produce, and restaurant food! Glass is great, but you can only have so many "reusable jars," and metal reduction means her hair may end up a nightmare of uncontrollable frizzies!
She doesn't even want to talk about her water reduction plans.
But it's not all been bad. She's saved a lot of money, has prospects for a new business, her impromptu blog is gaining traffic, and she even has a new boyfriend. Add to that, a few great friends who keep her going when things get rough, and the realization that there are only eleven months to go, and Cassie just might make it.
Now only if her car would cooperate and make it, too!
The Vintage Wren. A serial novel released in fifty-two episodes (for obvious reasons). Each month will be released separately as a full-length novel.
Genre: Inspirational
