how to write to files with writeLines in R

I am trying to write files and getting error:

this is what I am doing:

sites<-c("New York", "Boston", "San Francisco")
p<-1:10
for(i in 1:length(sites)) {
    print(sites[i])
        writeLines(p, paste0(gsub(" ", "_", sites[i]),".txt")
}

I get this error:

Error in writeLines(p, gsub(" ", "_", sites[i])) : 
  invalid 'text' argument

sites<-c("New York", "Boston", "San Francisco")
p<-1:10
for(i in 1:length(sites)) {
    print(sites[i])
        writeLines(as.character(p), paste0(gsub(" ", "_", sites[i]),".txt"))
}

[1] "New York"
[1] "Boston"
