Background:

Nicholas grew up in a creative family and had a passion for writing from an early age. He was socially awkward, shy, and he spent most of his time writing as opposed to having fun.
As a young adult, Nicholas attended Cambridge University and studied English Literature, whilst there Nicholas befriended a young Lindsey Fairhart, who unlike him was ruthless, confident and always a fan with the ladies. The two becomes great friends which continued to present day. The two had a yin and yang effect to their friendship, opposite people but got on like brothers. Nicholas often advised Lindsey and tried to keep him out of trouble.

Whilst Lindsey followed a career in law and becoming vastly wealthy, Nicholas became an author due to his passion of writing. He wrote many successful books and become a national celebrity. Nicholas eventually met his wife Sarah and the two had a son together.The years went by and Nicholas’s career was going downhill as he could not compete with the competition. He eventually came across the cases of Selphie Teller, inspired he felt he should write a book about her, however it was hard to get much evidence and information due to her being in a mental hospital.
Nicholas’s wife left them and he only got to see his son on weekends. He went into a depression, started drinking and only cared about his story and his son. He bought his project idea to his friend Lindsey who was willing to lend him a hand. Also his friendship with Lindsey has become strained as Lindsey has become a different character since the death of his daughter.
Upon the opening of the film, Nicholas has severe writer’s block and is struggling to get anywhere. His last hope is his friend Lindsey Fairhart who is trying to get him an interview with the infamous Selphie Teller.
Nicholas is deep into his divorce and is enjoying spending time with his son, however Nicholas barely sleeps or looks after himself and has gotten himself into a rough state. He spends hours in his writing studio trying to research and write more of his story, to his failure.
