- What would I do with $1,000?
I would pay off the balance from my dog Rodney’s knee (TPLO) surgery. He’s back in action and better than ever! Thank you.

I love listening to this podcast. Great conversations with authors and getting to know James Patterson. If I won the $1000, I would use the money to help my daughter with nursing school. She is in the nursing school at University of Michigan. We had the honor to meet you in New York at a Book signing with Bill Clinton and you gave her such advice about continuing to read and it’s one of her favorite memories. She was a big Jacky Ha Ha fan. She is hoping to work in Pediatrics. Thank you for enc... more

I really enjoy listening to your interviews on the podcast. I would use the $1000 grant to buy copies of the upcoming 2026 Stone Canoe literary magazine published annually by the YMCA Downtown Writers Center in Syracuse NY.
This program and classes do wonders to grow the next generation of writers. This edition will have the first publication of my son, Jason Markell. I am so excited and proud!
Look out James Patterson.

I love the podcast and I love listening to your positive energy and thoughts about writing. I’m an aspiring writer after a 25 year career in real estate. I know I can write, and have an active imagination but I am a bit nervous about jumping in. So listening to you and your guests makes me feel better about going for it.
The only suggestion I have is audio quality. Sometimes, your own audio output is choppy. Maybe a more professional mic? Not sure, but hearing your words more clearly helps! Ke... more
