Meet James Patterson, virtually.

Meet James Patterson.  Now he’s a man most people have at least heard of, if not by reading one of his books, then by watching a film or television movie based on one of his books.  He’s the world’s best-selling author since 2001 and to say Mr. Patterson is a prolific writer would be an understatement.  He publishes at least three books a year and has published up to 13 in one year.  His writing talent spreads across several different genres including romance, young adult, and children, but the majority of his books are mystery/thriller novels.  He has written almost one hundred novels since 1976 and has had nineteen consecutive #1 New York Times Best Selling Novels.  He holds the NY Times record and Guinness World record for the most best-selling hardcover fiction titles by a single author with seventy-six.  His novels account for one out of every seventeen hardcover books sold in the U.S.
