“Goats Gone Digital” follows Ethel Woolsey, a 65-year-old technophobe, who inherits her late husband's struggling goat farm in the charming town of Meadowbrook. Determined to save her legacy, Ethel reluctantly dives headfirst into the digital age, transforming her humble farm into an unexpected viral sensation.
With the help of her tech-savvy teenage granddaughter and a colorful cast of small-town characters, Ethel navigates the bewildering world of social media, online marketing, and the peculiar demands of “influencer” goats. This heartwarming tale blends laugh-out-loud moments with touching reflections on personal growth and adapting to change.
As Ethel fumbles through internet slang and dresses her goats in outrageous costumes, she discovers that even old goats can learn new tricks. The novel's deadpan humor and running gags provide a delightful backdrop to deeper themes of intergenerational bonds and finding one's place in a rapidly evolving world.
Through Ethel's misadventures, readers are reminded that it's never too late to reinvent oneself — or an entire herd of goats.
