How does he know that when he doesn't even have a finished draft yet? He's drunk.

He tweets about how he’s writing, more than he’s actually writing

The word count on his Twitter far exceeds his entire literary output combined, I'd bet money on it.

Fatrick: "Turns out this WiP needs a prologue, barkeep."
Extremely annoyed bartender: "What's a WiP?"
Fatrick: "Oh you don't know? Sorry I sometimes forget not everyone is a creative like me, it means work in progress, child."

He should have someone write a forward for it right now while he's at it. Since its at the beginning of the book, that means it's the first thing you have to do, right?

I just realized that he doesn't have an editor anymore, because he doesn't have a publisher. Morgan was a dyslexic retard, so maybe the end result would be the same. I guess we'll never know, because there is no publisher.

You could take this a few different ways, I'm reading it as he's offering to deep throat him.

That is perhaps the gayest shit that I have ever read. These faggots make me happy that publishing is dying.

I made a post on the old forum where I did the math and yes, he's literally tweeted more words than he's written in his stupid books.

Maybe heed the advice of an actual author:
Rule #2 Avoid Prologues
They can be annoying, especially a prologue following an introduction that comes after a foreword. But these are ordinarily found in nonfiction. A prologue in a novel is backstory, and you can drop it in anywhere you want.

Elmore Leonard? Who the fuck is he? I DO however know someone named Patrick S Tomlinson and he knows two things. Being a successful author. And being a firebrand.

He wrote the character Raylan Givens, who was adapted for the show Justified. Pretty good show. Though if he had shot as many people as he did in the early seasons alone he'd be on permanent desk duty

He finished In The Black in March 2020, then with edits and publishing delays because of the pandemic, it didn't get published until October 2020. It's a year and 9 months since he finished his last book and he's still farting around in the first draft.
What has he been doing for the last 21 months? He doesn't have a job and the pandemic locked everyone in their home. He should have written two full books but instead he's not even halfway through one.
