Follow the further adventures of William Zachary Harper in the novel Roughnecks by James J. Patterson and Quinn O’Connell, Jr.

Writer, dramatist, songwriter, musician, and political satirist James J. Patterson was born in Washington, D.C., five days before Nixon’s famous “Checkers Speech.” He’s been lurking about in what he calls The Capital of the Empire ever since. He’s that friendly fellow sitting next to you on the subway, or at the ballgame, or by the bar, ready to strike up a conversation. He wants to hear a story.

Tell him a good one. He might just write it down.
