add "\r" at end of your text contents or as a single character

 app.selection[0].paragraphs[0].insertionPoints[-1].contents = 'Voiceover\r'

or

 app.selection[0].paragraphs[0].insertionPoints[-1].contents = '\r'

if you are building new text in new empty Story or at end of current Story - don't use absolute index - .insertionPoints[10] - use .insertionPoints[-1] as reference to last item

 app.selection[0].paragraphs[-1].insertionPoints[-1].contents = '\r'
(you need to add this line if you want to start new paragraph after existing text)

 app.selection[0].paragraphs[-1].appliedParagraphStyle = 'BigRed'
 app.selection[0].paragraphs[-1].insertionPoints[-1].contents = 'Voiceover\r'
 app.selection[0].paragraphs[-1].appliedParagraphStyle = 'BigRed2'
 app.selection[0].paragraphs[-1].insertionPoints[-1].contents = 'Line 2\r'

like you can see - you need to switch order of lines - first you need to set formatting (ParaStyle) - then set new contents - and this is the best order of operations

step 1 - set formatting to LastInsertionPoint
step 2 - set contents of LastInsertionPoint

thanks to this - you don't need to care how long will be your new text ;)


if you want to add new text to empty TextFrame - you can't refer to first paragraph - because there is no paragraphs in empty TextFrame - you need to refer to insertionPoint - and better - to last insertionPoint of parentStory

 app.selection[0].parentStory.insertionPoints[-1]
