Fixing Sam

by Jaron Lee Knuth

After a failed marriage proposal, and an apathetic suicide attempt Samuel Grant is looking for a reason to wake up in the morning. An ex-child star and the son of two famous celebrities, Samuel embarks on a quest for substance while wandering through the surreal world of the entertainment industry.


Trying to see through a haze of scotch and antidepressants, his journey takes him through the flash bulbs of gossip obsessed paparazzi, the confined limits of a hospital bed, the seedy apartment of a neo-hippie, the Zen neutrality of a therapist's office, the shiny existence of a Canadian reality show, and the imprisoned realm of a hotel suite with limitless room service.


Featuring a large cast of unique characters, "Fixing Sam" is a post-modern search for the meaning of life in a media saturated existence.
