Well, I did not know he made films - we saw each other last same 30 years ago, and until only recently I did not even know that he had died.

Just like Linda, I remember him as a smart kid constantly ready to hit the world with a dry practical and usually extremely creative joke, however, never at the cost of anybody.

He was a really nice guy and as you say, a pleasure to work for. We're just entering pre-production on one of his scripts "tracker," so his work will live on...

Is this the same author who wrote the science fiction novel Anvil (1998)?

@cubonical He reallly past away. My mom was on Brokwood too and was the cousine of Nick, he's my uncle... He lives with us while fighting his cancer.

I did not have the chance to work with him, but I am glad to be able to enjoy some of the 'waves' he initiated living at the heart and center of these 'waves'.

Having worked in the media industry myself with tons of ego-challenged Napoleon types, I would have jumped for any opportunity to work with Nick in any capacity simply to enjoy his ways and experience team work with him. Team work is something of a spiritual nature only possible when the love for what one is doing takes over and egotistical motivations fade away. This is something I know was possible with Nick, and something that could really happen with him any moment hands down.

Is he really dead? I was a classmate of Nicholas at Brocwood park.There is no orbituary relating his death. He wears a wedding ring and looks very healthy.Even as a teenager he was very original and that possibility that he would announce his own demise tends to fit in.
