Summaries

"American High School," a romantic comedy, is centered on two people who marry young and contend with the consequences of "bad" actions. It's a story about a young, frightened girl, Gwen Adams who tries to break away from her father, find peace with her husband, and find peace within. In a world that expects everything from her, being herself was the last thing on her mind. When pushed to the breaking point, she discovers her own self-worth. But is it too late?—MyDesert

Small lives begin at the end of high school for this surreal society. A senior who married young must contend with her life, love, and pursuit of individuality and femininity in a narcissistic, misogynistic world of irony. Gwen Adams, her husband Holden, and school rival Hilary complete the love triangle as Principal Mann makes their lives living hell. Also featuring Miss Apple and Johnny Awesome. Life isn't simple wrapped in a bow -- there are bumps, bruises, and broken hearts. Through tears are laughter, and in the transition to maturity, boys and girls find themselves through each other.—mr. pip
