The California Project

I'm thinking Walden in Central/Westside LA. Here's the deal: three months as a summer intern in the heart of the film industry. Emily Mullin, almost entirely alone in the city of Los Angeles (with the exception of some very energetic relatives, and her grandmother), needs something to keep her from going completely insane. This is it.

The title? A melange (that's right, she's re-learning French) of The Happiness Project by Gretchen Rubin, and The Julie/Julia Project by Julia Powell. If everyone else can use the magic of the internet to revamp their lives, why can't she? She's going to stop writing in the third person very soon, she promises.

The details: She's working for two screenwriters. The rest of the summer is for her to figure out.

The Goal: Find happiness. Wherever that may be.
