A while back, a friend asked for a ball cap printed with Wren Island. She wanted people to ask “Where’s Wren Island?” so she could point them to all the marvelousness we know as Wren Island. Another friend said she’d like a pre-printed tablet of nice things to wish for, Amelia Theodore style.
It got me thinking.
Virgil’s market on Wren Island stocks groceries, ice, and other staples. With the completion of Allison’s island-wide road improvements, Wren Island might even attract a few tourists. And what do tourists love?
Souvenirs! Ball caps and beach-y hats. A notepad of nice things to wish for—with space to add your own ideas. Keychains expressing the love.
So I had a few fun items designed, offered an easy-peasy way for Wren Islanders to win them, and sent them off as little prizes to Wren Islanders everywhere. Some of the souvenirs even got mentioned in Interesting Enough: A Wren Island Novel.
For the moment, the window to enter to win a Wren Island souvenir has closed. But when you become a Wren Islander, you’ll be the first to know about new opportunities like this.
Thanks for caring about what happens on Wren Island!
