    The Daisy Chain series

    By Julie Johnson

    ()

    About this series

    At the heart of THE DAISY CHAIN are Geoff and Marcus, who, in 2018, are partners in love and business, and own and manage a vegan restaurant, The Daisy Chain. 

     

    With Winona, their part time employee, they endeavour to make the world a better place by offering locally sourced, organic vegan meals that appeal to even the most adamant meat eater.

     

    But Marcus wants more — more compassionate and ecologically minded people creating societal change now. 

     

    Getting impatient with their 'slow conversion rate' he decides to extend their reach and, with the help of two college students and a hippy dippy tarot reader, he decrees they will make a documentary series about the restaurant, publish it on YouTube and promote it heavily on their social media accounts. 

     

    This bold act tests all of their relationships, their resolve as activists and puts the future of the restaurant, and even their lives, at risk. 

     

    Told from the rotating perspectives of Geoff, Marcus and Winona, as they star in, watch and interact with the media they have created, THE DAISY CHAIN is a comedic, heartfelt exploration of what it means to be an activist and tackle some of the pressing issues of our time using social media as an imperfect platform. 


    (please note, some swearing and sexual references)

      Hill of Greens explores what happens when a group of six strangers come together to address climate change through art activism in 2016.   Most climate fiction stories are apocalyptic and grim.  Not so Hill of Greens! This is 'climate fiction comedy'.   Come join this eclectic cast of characters as they attempt to tackle the climate crisis...while at the same time grappling with personal issues of love, romance, family, parenting, sexual identity, cultural identity, work and career.    Not to mention the problems they have with each other...   Can they band together to make a better world? Or will their band break up?   Grab your free trade organic coffee, pull up a chair, and hear the tale of these six sweet, ambitious, idealistic souls who risk showing their imperfect selves to each other (and the world) in the name of societal consciousness raising.   (some swearing and references to sexual activity)   Cover created by J. Johnson in Canva using stock images.
