Canadian Nicholas Alexander is chasing his dream to become a writer/producer in Independent film in New York City. After years of struggling his way up in the industry, he finally achieves that dream, but in the instant it takes for the elevator doors to close, his life changed, his dream snatched away. He had lived by his mother's mantra, "Just never bare your soul."

Nicholas's self-destruction came from this intentional, or orchestrated, self-denial of his truth. He is a reluctant diabetic.

An Orchestrated Mistake is a razor-sharp, wry, and at times ruthless self-indictment. Yet even though it all is based on actual events and the author's true story, he'll be the first to tell you that his life has often been the source of much humor and many laughs.
