Summary

A modern adaptation of Becoming Jane

"I want you to have a good video to look at when you're old and can't get into a cinema to watch my matinees. I want you to have one video that might pass as proof that the great director Jane Aston is your sister."

Jane always knew her calling. She sees Netflix as her research, and popcorn as her fuel. Her eyes are her lens to set the world as a stage. And while she knows that the silver screen seems a lifetime and a half away, she's willing to push past all that to make the movies people queue days to see. That is, if she can get past her coutryside prison of a home and get to uni.

Tom Leroy loves money. Mid-way through training to be a big shot lawyer with buckets of money to wash in, he gets pushed into the countryside to stay with his best friend Henry, and his family for the summer. What seems like a disaster for the city boy turns into an unforgettable experience as he bumps into the despicable Jane again and again and again, in a love-hate-love story.

Author's note: So, i love Jane Austen, as you guys can probably guess from my username. I recently saw the movie "Becoming Jane" and i love it. I cant hope desperately enough that she experienced love like that in reality, knowing full well that hollywood magic was at play. Its easy to find one of her works being adapted into a modern story, but what about Jane herself? This is how i imagine things would have okayed out for her.

Also, i will work on this over summer if there is enough interest. So if you guys like the start, please keep on supporting it :D

That's all folks
