She's rewriting her story. Literally. 

NORMATIVITY tells the story of Taylor, a teenage lesbian, who’s sick of seeing LGBTQ+ people killed off in media with tragic endings (the phenomenon known as “Bury Your Gays”). When Taylor meets Emily, a book character who’s willed herself to life in order to confront the author who wrote her story, they force him to rewrite Emily’s story, giving her a happy ending and proving why positive LGBTQ+ storytelling is so important. 
 
NORMATIVITY aims to explore our ideas about sexuality, the world we live in, the people we’re surrounded by, and the way these factors influence the lives of LGBTQ+ teens.
