GENERATION LOCKDOWN

GENERATION LOCKDOWN is a story seen through the eyes of an eleven year old boy as he tries to save his friend’s life during an active shooter attack in his school.

16-year old Eva is as over achieving as they come. She is running for student class president while juggling a heavy academic schedule and planning the upcoming spring dance. Eva dreams of becoming a comic book artist – something she knows her helicopter Mom would never support. Eva and her childhood best friend, Liz like to “dress up” and pretend to be not-so-straight-laced girls named “Vicky” and “Veronica.” Together, they imagine their alter-egos doing highly questionable and even illegal acts, things Eva and Liz would never do themselves. They document these naughty acts in “The Never List.” When Liz suddenly dies in a tragic accident, Eva is filled with anger and regret thinking about all the things Liz never did out of fear of risking her future… a future she ultimately would never have. Eva decides the best way to honor her best friend’s memory is to complete The Never List. At first this journey leads her to romance and adventure, but as the list progresses, her actions begin threatening the very foundations of her carefully planned teenage life and even her own future.

THE NEVER LIST

After the sudden death of her best friend, a straight-A, obedient teen sets out to fulfill their secret list of outrageous acts they said they'd never do.
