For example, his sister, just like Jamie, was never popular at school and always wore an ugly sweater. Although the story is largely fictional, certain parts were based on real experiences. The novel was inspired by Sparks' sister, Danielle Sparks Lewis, who later died of cancer in June 2000.
The title A Walk to Remember was taken from one of the tail end pages of the novel: "In every way, a walk to remember." The novel is written in first-person, and its narrator is a seventeen-year-old boy, living in the 1950s. Like his first published novel The Notebook, the prologue to A Walk to Remember was written last. He wrote it in North Carolina, which is the setting of the novel. Sparks wrote the manuscripts for A Walk to Remember, his third novel, in the summer of 1999.
