SYNOPSIS:

Synopsis:

Lee is a personable, caring introvert who works in a loud, rowdy, social breakfast diner.

He never gets rattled by much these days, not because of confidence, rather do to his lack of

emotion. As he leaves one night, we see how Lee lives compared to the people around him:

lonely. He’s obviously missing something. Someone? We follow him into a flashback of the best

night of his life. One where he is surrounded by friends, art, and his lover, Nicole. The night ends

magically with Lee virtually sweeping Nicole off her feet. And the memory ends, returning Lee

to the stale reality of a world without her leaving the audience wondering what happened? Why

is Lee lonely?

Across the city, a publishing company is in desperate need to stay afloat. CEO Mr.

Mason's personal oath is to not publish a writer unless the book is a best seller while his VP

Felicity thinks the best plan should be to publish books that the public want to read. Frustrated

with his stubbornness, she gives him an ultimatum: find a bestselling author within a month or

publish the feel-good novels.

As the story continues, we meet Lee's friends John, his co-worker and opposite half, and

Samantha, a mutual friend of Nicole who is now more of a sister, that love him and understand

his pain, but are growing impatient with his lack of motivation and obstinacy as well. So, they do

what true friends should: push him forward unapologetically.

You see, Lee is a talented writer, but internal obstacles involving his romantic life

interfere. He works on his book every day, but can't finish the beginning nor end because he

doesn't believe he has the right perspective. In truth, to begin the story would be to acknowledge

Nicole’s absence, and to end it would be to solidify it. Still, Lee loves to write, and when

Samantha swings him an interview with a top newspaper company, Lee realizes that he must find

a way to get over his hump. He soul searches by reliving treasured memories with Nicole.

Similarly, Mr. Mason understands that he is stuck in his ways, but probably with good reason.
