The Last Song by Nicholas Sparks

Today I finished reading The Last Song by Nicholas Sparks.

I read Sparks to learn how to manipulate reader emotions.  He is the best author I know for writing emotions.  And he makes a lot of money doing it.

After reading three or so of his novels and having watched another three or four movies based on his novels I'm beginning to notice a familiar pattern.  But the pattern sells books so I'm not going to throw stones at it.

A shout out of appreciation to the folks at Cracked.com for a really funny take off How to Write a Nicholas Sparks Movie.  Go to www.cracked.com/funny-4725-nicholas-sparks/  to see it full-sized.
