A whimsical romantic fantasy about a struggling novelist whose imagined character comes to life, exploring the tension between creative control and genuine human connection.

Calvin is a young novelist who achieved phenomenal success early in his career but is now struggling with his writing – as well as his romantic life.

When Calvin finds Ruby, in the flesh, sitting on his couch about a week later, he is completely flabbergasted that his words have turned into a living, breathing person.
