My Name is Nicholas James Yarris,..
I began life as a man on January 16th 2004. It was this day I was set free from 8057 days of solitary confinement. I had spent all of that time locked in a cell whilst awaiting my execution for crimes which I was eventually exonerated by DNA science for.
In 2007 I recorded an interview in Ealing London that was then made into a monologue basis for a film documentary. I had no choice in title or composition. I also was not the one to set the film up as a "who done it" or mystery surprise ending, or any of the cliche parts.
I sat down and told my story as best I was able to. What others did in furtherance of this is not my doing at all.
Look, we have one chance to make a statement of who we are in life. I have no doubt that those in my personal life know me well enough that I am not affected by the perception of others. I also know that I am a very productive person who is both polite and kind.
Nothing else matters and I am having a terrific life now. My book "Fear of 13" is being released November 17th by Random House publishers, I have a new TV show in Development and a new Stage play as well as my life story being made into a major motion picture by a Hollywood actor.
I used my talent as a writer to heal my life. I have talent there as well as being one of the finest public speakers of this genre.
All I can say about this film and those who may want to come on here for comments is this:
Each day from around the globe someone sends me all of these really wonderful messages on the social media after watching my film.
No matter what a few will say in the negative, so many hundreds of thousands of kind worded messages have already shown me that the majority of the world will be full of kindness and open reception to my efforts.
I am left with the greatest calling card ever in this first film documentary and nothing anyone says can undo that fact. All I can do is be genuine and show in years to follow whether or not I am deserving of the praise I get.
In the end it goes like this:
I know I have lived a remarkable life thus far. I know I have experienced things which others will find unbelievable or far too incomprehensible to imagine-All based on their own feelings of inferiority. I don't have time to bow down to anyone else as I am absolutely certain that I have paid for any and all in my past. Further to this, I am truly a good person each day.
The swagger in my step is self confident not overbearing. The confidence in my voice is from the words of dictum spoken, not from having a brusque ego.
I am one of the strongest humans ever created and I know this only from having lived this wonderfully crazy life which I have known. I will not part with an up turned chin and a smirk to match... I just stride on knowing I have found my purpose in life and I am sharing it now with this film.
Thank you and all the best to those of you who have enjoyed this film. For those of you who were not able to enjoy it, I hope you find another form of entertainment to keep you busy or happy.
Bye and yes, I am happy and giving my self EVERYTHING these days...
Yours sincerely,
Nick Yarris
