Southerncalifornia Stories

Welcome to Happy at Canoga Park High! 🎉🏫 Hey Hunters (and friends of the Valley)! 👋 This is the official home for my original movie script Happy - a fun, nostalgic coming-of-age story set at Canoga Park High School in the San Fernando Valley. ❤️ Every day (or as close as I can manage!), I'll share serialized scenes: follow Christian, Bethany, and the crew through baseball 🏈, crushes 💕, marching band 🎺, family drama, and all the heartfelt high school moments. Grab your popcorn, Milk Duds, and a big Coke-things are about to get magical (and mysteriously enchanting). ✨ Happy is a classic fairytale at heart: Princess Bethany longs to be swept off her feet by her true Prince Charming, leading to the happiest of endings. But it's more than that-think Twilight Zone meets enchanted romance with clever twists, hidden easter eggs, and clues. Spot something off? Drop a comment! This is our shared journey to They lived happily ever after. (Or did they? 👀) Inspired by real Canoga Park vibes (Go Hunters! Hunter green & white forever! 💚), but 100% fictional.

This is a poem I wrote about the wind in Rialto and Fontana, CA. .

KC and Braiden have been neighbors since they were six. Despite their flirtatious banter, they have always been just friends. Except now that they are in high school, sneaking into your neighbors window isn't so innocent anymore. When they were kids they learned some things never change, but now that they are older, they have to realize how much really does have to change.

ATTENTION KAMFAM!! This will be a fanfic...of course both boys will be in it, but the story revolves around Kalin. Plot: Kalin & Sophia fall in love on an amazing summertime night....how they fall in love? Where they fall in love? Read to find out how their love blossoms. Comment, suggest, react, interact!

What if One Direction had been started in the US. They might look very different...or the same. Here's my reimagining....

in which she finds out that, after all this time, he was the one or in which he goes off the grid with her

Lauren Jacobs thought she had her life all figured out. She has great best friends, a gorgeous boyfriend, and school wasn't so horrible. That changed one night at a party with her boyfriend. Lauren's life is now in the spotlight at school. She moves on from her now ex-boyfriend. But something is missing in her life. She isn't fully happy like she used to be. Could the missing piece be right in front of her?

Edelyn has a one-in-a-million name, a year-long RA gig, and an unlucky streak in love. All she wants is to try and let loose so that she can forget about these emotional scabs, but it's proving difficult as she gets distracted by conduct cases and a pretty frat boy. --- Edelyn Tran Page is reeling from the most unexpected breakup of her life. It turns out that life doesn't owe you a happily ever after just because you had a party phase in freshmen year, or because you've nurtured yourself into what your dearest friends call the Top Girl Boss. Now, Brave Edelyn is all but buried, and she's finding herself obsessively checking her phone notifications and checking over her shoulder for the boy who left her at the start of the summer. It's proving hard to stay focused as she returns to her role as an RA and has to juggle her heartbreak with senioritis, a part-time job, and an internship that she's hoping will turn into a post-graduation job security blanket. Maybe the messy-haired blonde with a penchant for mischief will prove to be the salve she needs as they kiss their way into oblivion. Or maybe, she hasn't learned anything at all.

Southern California is weird - and it gets a lot weirder in the hilariously dystopian comedy, Palm Tree Pipe Dreams In the near future, L.A.'s traffic reaches a saturation point, resulting in a massive, intractable gridlock. While politicians and special interest groups battle each other over solutions, a new normal takes hold - one that challenges the already-challenged Ira O'Riley, a young, frustrated screenwriter from Detroit. The low-level foothold Ira had gained in the entertainment industry slips away. Jobless, homeless and girlfriendless, Ira struggles to adapt and find the success and love he's convinced are his destiny. His missteps and misadventures inadvertently lead to him becoming a media darling, folk hero and hunted fugitive. "Craptastic," as Ira would say. Writing in the absurdist tradition of Douglas Adams, Kurt Vonnegut and Gary Shteyngart, Paraventi uses the memorable characters and preposterous situations in Palm Tree Pipe Dreams to both skewer and embrace the ambitious, adaptable, self-inventing, delusional, trend-obsessed people who are drawn to L.A. After all, "they're like Americans are in general, only more so."

From the moment she first learned the truth about witches…she knew she was born to fight them. Now, at sixteen, Iris is the lone girl on the Witch Hunters Special Ops Team. But when Iris meets a boy named Arlo, he might just be the key to preventing an evil uprising in Southern California. Together they're ready to protect the human race at all costs. Because that's what witch hunters do. Welcome to Hollywood.

Since I was 6, I had lived in Southern California in Orange County. My family called it SoCal. I miss the place so much, I decided to write this poem. It is short, but very meaningful to me. I hope you enjoy. :)

Quirks and perks of living in Southern California. Not on an update schedule other than when something comes to mind.
