Based on certain aspects of the biography of the character in turn, it is possible to know when success is inexcusably, naturally deserved, conquering readers through good novels or, at least, to the liking of many potential readers. That is the case of Nicholas sparks, from the financial sector, with no connection to benefit from in the literary world and dedicated to other tasks until he hit the mark, convinced a publishing house and ended up being a winning bet.
We always talk, of course, about commercial literature, as valid as any other but always with more options to allow you to live from what you like... The truth is that when I read about the biography of authors such as Nicholas Sparks, the writer who never to be congratulates the literary world. A guy who had been writing since he was young, who saw writing as a particular facet with hardly any options to materialize professionally, but in the end it is always a gamble to take care of, like so many budding writers who move today between the traditional publishers and self-publishing.
But how would i say Michael Ende, that's another story. Strictly referring to the good Nicholas, his narrative baggage moves between idealism and even Catholicism, in addition to romanticism and everything that is humanity as a moral value. An old romantic in the current world of crime novels… But the grace lies in the variety and in the transition from one theme to another to be able to enjoy all that is good literature or entertainment literature.
