The Stories of My Life

"I felt I was interviewing James Patterson under the highest permissible dose of sodium pentothal, the truth serum, for hours--and he spilled the whole story of his truly astonishing life."--Bob Woodward



"Damn near addictive. I loved it . . . that Patterson guy can write!" -Ron Howard



How did a kid whose dad lived in the poorhouse become the most successful storyteller in the world?
 * On the morning he was born, he nearly died.
 * His dad grew up in the Pogey- the Newburgh, New York, poorhouse.
 * He worked at a mental hospital in Massachusetts, where he met the singer James Taylor and the poet Robert Lowell.  
 * While he toiled in advertising hell, James wrote the ad jingle line "I'm a Toys 'R' Us Kid."
 * He once watched James Baldwin and Norman Mailer square off to trade punches at a party.
 * He's only been in love twice.  Both times are amazing.
 * Dolly Parton once sang "Happy Birthday" to James over the phone.  She calls him J.J., for Jimmy James. 

How did a boy from small-town New York become the world's most successful writer? How does he do it? He has always wanted to write the kind of novel that would be read and reread so many times that the binding breaks and the book literally falls apart. As he says, "I'm still working on that one." 



James Patterson by James Patterson is the most anticipated memoir of 2022.

Discover James Patterson's powerfully moving novel of love, loss, hope, and family. Katie Wilkinson has found her perfect man at last. He's a writer, a house painter, an original thinker-everything she's imagined she wanted in a partner. But one day, without explanation, he disappears from her life, leaving behind only a diary for her to read. This diary is a love letter written by a new mother named Suzanne for her baby son, Nicholas. In it she pours out her heart about how she and the boy's father met, about her hopes for marriage and family, and about the unparalleled joy that having a baby has brought into her life. As Katie reads this touching document, it becomes clear that the lover who has just left her is the husband and father in this young family. She reads on, filled with terror and hope, as she struggles to understand what has happened-and whether her new love has a prayer of surviving. Written with James Patterson's perfect pitch for emotion and suspense, Suzanne's Diary for Nicholas captures beautifully the joys of a new family even as it builds to an overwhelmingly moving climax. This is an unforgettable love story, at once heartbreaking and full of hope.

Bestselling author James Patterson's best book for boys in years! Tired of being bullied, middle-school underdogs "Pottymouth" and "Stoopid" finally fight back with the power of funny. David and his best friend Michael were tagged with awful nicknames way back in preschool when everyone did silly things. Fast-forward to seventh grade: "Pottymouth" and "Stoopid" are still stuck with the names--and everyone in school, including the teachers and their principal, believe the labels are true. So how do they go about changing everyone's minds? By turning their misery into megastardom on TV, of course! And this important story delivers more than just laughs--it shows that the worst bullying doesn't have to be physical...and that things will get better. A great conversation starter for parents to read alongside their kids! Official Notice to Parents:There is no actual pottymouthing or stupidity in this entire book!(Psst, kids: that second part might not be entirely true.)
