Default I confess I Am The One Who Compared Pattersons Advice to Sun Tsu

Thanks Dien,

Actually Steven King and James Patterson have much in common.

In Steven Kings Excellent book, "On Writing"
he gives very simplistic advice.

"...Tell what you see - then get on with the story."

James Patterson's video MasterClass Advice
is much the same.

SOUNDS VERY SIMPLE.

BUT Here's Why They will NEVER AGREE.

Steven King says his books s*ell because he Himself NEVER knows
what will happen. (Which means he gets an idea - then Starts writing without
knowing how the book will end. Or an outline.)

WHILE...

James Patterson Outlines the HECK out of each book.
Then turns his outline over to a Professional Copywriter who used to work
for him in his Ad Agency.

Then edits and Works with Each MASTERMIND
Writing Partner -- on Rewrites until he is satisfied.

Although I was happy to hear that
Patterson Personally Writes all of 2 or 3 books a year - all by himself.

Thanks,
Glenn
