James Patterson to Pen New Novel- With Thirty Other Authors

Best-selling author James Patterson is teaming up with thirty other authors to write a 30 chapter novel, each written by a different author except for the first and last which will be written by Patterson himself. The project, called Airborne, is sponsored by Borders Australia and Random House. A contest was held to find twenty-eight authors who would be able to write the bulk of the book. Starting March 20, Airborne will be released one chapter at a time electronically. A print edition will eventually be printed, but only for participants in the competition. Participants may follow the progress of Airborne on Facebook, Twitter and RSS.
