What an ass.

The sad thing is that this guy is going to live insulated surrounded by his wall of money he got from every housewife in the country, oblivious to all criticism, until he dies years later, still filthy rich and believing himself to be the best author in the universe to the very end.

What Sparks doesn't realize is that Shakespeare wrote Taming of the Shrew about four hundred years before he was born.

'"Hemingway. See, they're recommending The
Garden of Eden, and I read that. It was published after he was dead. It's a weird story about this honeymoon couple, and a third woman gets involved. Uh, it's not my cup of tea." Sparks pulls the one beside it off the shelf. "A Farewell to Arms, by Hemingway. Good stuff. "That's what I write," he says, putting it back. "That's what I write."'

Cormac McCarthy?
"Horrible," he says, looking at Blood Meridian. "This is
probably the most pulpy, overwrought, melodramatic cowboy vs. Indians
story ever written."'

>"There are no authors in my genre. No one is doing what I do." - Actual quote from Nichoals Sparks.

dammit

The more pretentious shit I read about this guy the more I absolutely fucking love him. I have yet to actually read any of his books, but I have met him. He's a nice guy, and knows how to make middle aged housewives swoon IRL.

Pic related, it's the mansion their money built him in New Bern.

Pretentiousness is only a nice quality in a superior human being. This guy is up there with Stephanie Meyers - neither of them has talent, but they write fetishes that certain demographics of women like to schlick to.

He really can afford to act like a jackass. No one in his fanbase will care, and it gets him in the news and gives him name recognition.

Pretentiousness isn't a "nice" quality in any human being, and I didn't mean that he's a nice guy because he's pretentious. He was very personable when I met him, which is a nice quality.

This ain't right.

FUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU

I can taste blood in my mouth after reading this thread.

Should I go to a hospital?

this guy needs to die

>>524382

You could just stop biting my head.

>>524385

I can't. I can't. It's the only thing that helps.

>"That's what I write," he says, putting it back. "THAT'S WHAT I WRITE."

Probably the most pretentious contemporary author.
