Nicholas SparksThere are writers you admire, for the skill or the art, for the inventiveness or for the professionalism of a career well spent. And there are writers-sometimes the same ones, sometimes not-to whom you are powerfully attracted, for reasons that may or may not have to do with literary values.

Often there is one writer in particular who awakens you, who is the teacher they say you will meet when you are ready for the lesson.

The appeal of the double life begets travel.
