She has an apartment in Boston that she hasn’t been to since his funeral.
She has recently moved back in with her parents who still live in her childhood home in Devinstone.
She loves teaching but feels as if she isn’t doing enough with her life. She wants to change her career path but doesn’t know what to do or how to do it so in the mean time, she’s working at her family owned fitness center and trying to get her life back on track.
Her mother is a somewhat mildly successful author who published a book about thoughtful practice and well-being that was published in a couple of new and noteworthy lists for several weeks. She is constantly trying to write a follow up to the title and is often experimenting with new and exotic holistic practices in order to inspire herself.
WANTED CONNECTIONS; EXISTING CHARACTERS
Friends; Zoe has been a lot more difficult to be around since the death of her husband and has become distant from a lot of her friends while she deals with her grief. Some of her friends have moved on and expect her to do the same while others are more patient and still want to be there for her, even when she pushes them away.
New neighbor; Zoe hasn’t lived in Devinstone since she was a teenager, you know her family but you never got to know her. Now is your chance.
