"An aspiring TV writer (a former New Yorker) hits Southern California and gives himself five years to sell a script. In the meantime, he takes a job as a substitute teacher in L.A. As he encounters everything from narcissistic literary agents to promiscuous PTA moms, he forges ahead while dealing with the lunacy of Hollywood AND the public school system. In the end, he has to choose which career path to follow. "
