Missed Connections Julian Lopez

Missed Connections pivots on the reality of coquetry and probability. Real postings from Craigslist become intertwined with the fictitious lives of several hopeful Angelenos. Robin never forgot her own Missed Connection from years ago-the handsome Leonard Watson. Now, the coffeehouse owner and Craigslist junkie is faced with her past and a stranger who has been closely watching her. Lives and Love affairs intersect through the essence of Missed Connections. Among those entangled in the orbit of cyber proclamations are some of Robin's friends-Elva, a spunky Cuban pastry chef, the beautiful pessimist, Kathleen, advertising guru, Frank, and Robin's gay best friend Mark, an Industry casting agent. The variety of Missed Connections occurring anywhere, such as restaurants, bars, beaches and Hollywood hiking trails are all part of the endless possibilities of the hopeful human spirit and the synchronicity that continues to occur around us on a daily basis. Anyone who has posted on Missed Connections may just find their posting within this fiction novel.
