Technorati Tags: James Patterson,book publishing
For several years now, a colleague of mine has been expressing doubts about the quality of the fiction produced by James Patterson.
It turns out there’s reason, and it’s been around for almost a year now.
Patterson, last September, signed a contract to produce 17 books by the end of 2012.
Not bad, eh wot?
Not necessarily good, either, if one considers the quality of the product. Books, successful books, well-written [i.e., well-thought-out] books can be produced in such quantity with such a timeline?
We’ll see.
It might be wise, though, to let someone else pay for those books as they come out. Let someone else be the reading public’s guinea pig.
Perhaps my friend won’t be so willing to buy the latest by “a New York Times” best seller.
