The Writer: Nicholas P

Hello, my name is Nicholas P, and welcome to my profile! I encourage other writers to find their voices and show their art! Everyone has a voice. I found mine in giving a lot of character to the scripts that I have written. Write on! I just have one ounce of advice for other writers. Please take it. Isolating yourself from everything is not a good idea, especially when you believe it's going to work. Ideas come from everywhere. All I can tell everyone that has a voice is to stick to it and continue to grow with your creativity. Keep going. I notify everyone that has request to read my scripts, that I will release them when the time is right, and all I ask is for your patience. As of this… Go to bio
