Oh no he didn't.

Nicholas Sparks is a pretentious douche.

I can't believe how bafflingly arrogant this guy is about his mediocre books. Putting yourself in the company of Shakespeare, Jane Austin, and Hemingway?

"I'm going to interrupt you there. There's a difference between drama and melodrama; evoking genuine emotion, or manipulating emotion. It's a very fine eye-of-the-needle to thread. And it's very rare that it works. That's why I tend to dominate this particular genre. There is this fine line. And I do not verge into melodrama. It's all drama. I try to generate authentic emotional power."

Jesus Christ STFU. Like we don't already have ample evidence of the fact that a bestseller does not a good (or even decent) novel make.

I also like how fucking insecure he is about being called a "romance" author, and that the writer of the article keeps mentioning that he likes to "watch football", etc.

Just read the interview. There isn't much else I can add to it.

Hahahaha. He's an alumni of Bella Vista HS, a rival high school in my hometown area. They're generally characterized as being a stupidly arrogant school. Apparently they even came up with a chant/prayer/something to say before standardized tests so they could try to topple my high school's API score.

HATERS GONNA HATE.

But yeah. Lol Nicholas Sparks. Looollllll

David Spade is an alumni of Saguaro High School, my alma matter.

Yes, I really went to a school called "Saguaro".

And Stephanie Meyer is from Fountain Hills, a suburb just north of Scottsdale. A fucking local celebrity. Alice Cooper kicks the shit out of her sparkly vampires, and he lives close to my parents.

School rivalries are stupid. I hated it in high school. I hate it in university. I DON'T FUCKING CARE THAT WE'RE PLAYING U OF A THIS WEEK I DON'T CARE IF THEY PAINT THE "A" BLUE I JUST COLLABORATE WITH THEM SHIT.
