Hello everyone from Palermo in Sicily. My name is Grace A. Balistreri, I live in the province of Palermo, but I actually come from Gloucester, Boston, Massachusetts. My family moved when I was a teenager and I have lived in Sicily ever since, but still keep coming back to America. I really love writing and aspire to become a screenwriter of fantasy stories; I am passionate about creating stories and inventing worlds different from reality. I would really like my dream to become a real career and I would like the public to like my stories, as much as I like them. I'm a beginner, but I'm sure that with my great passion and good representation I can see my dream come true.

Very interesting Grace Antonina Balistreri! Does living abroad inform your work? That so cool that you're able to come back and connect with your Boston roots while also living in such an amazing place. I actually turned 21 in Sicily, a looooooong time ago! : )

Riccardo "RB" Botto Hello, nice to meet you I'm very happy to be at stage 32, that's amazing, have you met any sicilian relatives? Sicily is a beautiful island and it has a lot to see and it has a lot of history. One of my stories are place in Sicily. I'm trying to learn how the app works. In the meantime studying, learning how the entertainment business works and putting my story together.

Grace Antonina Balistreri, my paternal grandfather was from Sicily. One of the most incredible human beings to walk this planet. And I agree, Sicily is stunning.
There's a ton to see here, but don't let that intimidate you. Spend some time in the Lounges, contribute and soak things up. You'll be off and running in no time!

Nick Phillips,
Sorry for the late reply.
Living in another country in a way does influence the job of a screenwriter, because it's easier to build a career in America, London ecc... There is more opportunitie there; but on the other hand Sicily is fool of art, History and the sicilian culture is fool of stories that inspire you on creating and inventing anything you like. It was important to me to keep my Boston roots, Sicily is a fantastic place but I feel like I missed a lot from American traditions. How was your experience in Sicily? How was your 21 Birthday here?

Hi Grace. My family is from Sicily too - Messina. I just visited there for the first time last year. It's a beautiful place. I like what you said about wanting the public to like your stories as much as you do. I feel that way as well. So far it seems, I'm the one that likes them best. Maybe that's as it should be.

Hi David Paulsen,
Messina is a Beautiful place, actually Sicily is Beautiful, for sure everyone have heard of Cefalù, Palermo, Catania, Messina, Taormina, San Vito all Places to see. I myself just visited Messina, that my niece goes to University there, she complished her gool, no matter how difficult it was she never lost hope she managed to get in to medicine. Never give Up in your dreams, what some people won't like others would love. I'm sure you can complish your gool.
