The Master Artist - Michael Angelo

James Patterson uses a similar method to what michael angelo used when he painted the sistine chapel. He'll draft a detailed, 80 page outline, and he'll then send that outline to a collaborator who uses it to create a rough draft for the story. Thet collaborator then sends the draft to patterson, who then gives him or her detailed feedback. Eventually the team expands as editors are brought in. And this method allows patterson to work on multiple simultaneous projects, all of which were burst from his mind.
