Meeting Nicholas Sparks

Recently Nicholas Sparks was back in our neck of the woods. He used to live here and wrote his first novel here, while working as a pharmaceutical rep. The Notebook became a best seller in the first week it was released. Because the locals were so supportive-- he always starts his book tours here.




He has six books that have been made into movies. You may have seen one of these:

Message in a bottle, A Walk to Remember, The Notebook, Nights in Rodanthe, Dear John and The Last Song.

Hubby and I ran over to the book signing the other day and met him. It was early and not a large crowd. Notice the girl pulling the cart with 20 books to be signed. lol They were gifts and actually it went quickly.




I can only imagine how tired his arm must have been at the end of the night.

He was talkative, friendly and very nice .
Here's the two of us.

Hubby popped into this pic.

The sponsors of the event posted this sign to keep the crowd moving faster.

This book is also in the works to be a movie. It will surely do well. It has suspense and intrique and it's moments of sadness.

What have you all been up to lately?

Thanks for your visit and taking the time to let me know you stopped by.

Till next time!
