LOS ANGELES — Nicholas Sparks has no love for people who call his stories “romances.”
The mega-best-selling author of The Notebook, A Walk to Remember, Nights in Rodanthe, Dear John and Message in a Bottle stands in the aisle of Book Soup, literally and figuratively defending his turf.“If you look for me, I’m in the fiction section. Romance has its own section,” he says toward the end of a long conversation. Sunshine streams in from Sunset Boulevard. He’s smiling. Hard.
“I don’t write romance novels.” His preferred terminology: “Love stories — it’s a very different genre. I would be rejected if I submitted any of my novels as romance novels.”
Rejection isn’t something he has had to deal with lately. Sparks holds the No. 1 and No. 2 positions on USA TODAY’s Best-Selling Books list with The Last Song, a novel turned movie vehicle for Miley Cyrus, and Dear John, recently released as a movie with Amanda Seyfried and Channing Tatum.
Includes: 2 VIP tickets to the premiere of The Last Song and a meet&greet with the star of the movie, Miley Cyrus!
No name is more recognized in the pop music and television shows of the teen crowd then Miley Cyrus. She has dominated both genres for the past several years and is one of the most sought after people of her generation.
Now, Miley is taking the movie scene by storm in her new movie The Last Song. Its storyline follows a troubled teenager as she reconnects with her estranged father and falls in love during a summer in a quiet Southern beach town.

Liam Hemsworth, who co-stars in Disney’s upcoming Miley Cyrus drama “The Last Song,” is jumping into action-movie territory with “Arabian Nights.”
The actor is in negotiations to star in Inferno Entertainment’s 3D adventure directed by Chuck Russell.
Inferno’s Bill Johnson is producing with Mark Ciardi and Gordon Gray of Mayhem Pictures. ROAR also is producing.
Written by Russell and Barry P. Ambrose, the period epic centers on a young commander (Hemsworth) who, after his king is murdered in a coup, joins forces with Sinbad and Aladdin to rescue Queen Scheherazade.
An end-of-summer shoot is being eyed.
Hemsworth, repped by ROAR, is a relative unknown who apart from the buzz he is generating from “Song” appeared in last year’s “Knowing.”
The deal also puts him in territory being tread by brother Chris Hemsworth, who is in production as the title character in Marvel’s superhero action fantasy “Thor.”
Inferno is planning a year-end shoot for “The Grey,” an action project starring Bradley Cooper and directed by Joe Carnahan.

The first part of Hannah Montana’s two-part season finale cliffhanger, “Miley Says Goodbye?,” topped all cable viewing for the week. WWE RAW took second for the week. Those looking for a TNA vs RAW comparison, this is for Monday March 1. We will post the RAW and TNA numbers for March 8 separately.
Pawn Stars tops iCarly! Who would’ve bet on that!? And both of last Monday’s 30 minute episodes of Pawn Stars came in ahead of the season finale of Burn Notice (#9). Six reruns of NCIS made the top 25 list, as well as five episodes of SpongeBob.
