HOW (NOT) TO BE A MESS
By Mirielle Smith

GENRE: Comedy, Independent, Romance
LOGLINE: Becky is trying to get her life together--no more cursing, screwing around, or eating mashed potatoes for dinner. It's going well.

SYNOPSIS:

Becky Grant decides to stop being the kind of person who drinks wine straight from the bottle, locks her keys in the car, and goes on dates with terrible guys. Her sister Sawyer is unexpectantly pregnant, her best friend Marc is snarky, and Marc's new roommate Jonathan is a little too perfect. Becky has rules, and she refuses to break them. She curses less, Sawyer's morning sickness eventually ends, and Becky and Jonathan are certainly not flirting. And she definitely wasn't planning to sleep with him. One awkward morning-after, a couple of months, a niece, many diapers, and one midnight epiphany later, Becky realizes that no matter how hard she works, she's always going to be something of a mess. So is Jonathan, and so is everyone.
