How to send your letter
- 1
Confirm who publishes them now
Authors move between publishers, so before you send, check that James Patterson is still published by Little, Brown and Company (part of Hachette Book Group) — see the sources below. If they've moved, address your letter to the new publisher instead. Some authors also list a preferred contact or agent on their own website.

Write your letter
Keep it to paper. Publishers forward reader mail but won't pass on cash, gifts, or valuables, and most ask you not to send books or items to be signed. Add your return address if you'd like a chance at a reply, though a personal response is never guaranteed.

Common questions
What is James Patterson's fan mail address?
James Patterson, c/o Author Mail, 1290 Avenue of the Americas, New York, NY 10104, USA. Letters go to the author-mail desk at Hachette Book Group (James Patterson's books are published under its Little, Brown and Company imprint), which forwards reader mail to its authors — not a home address. Confirm James Patterson is still published by Little, Brown and Company before mailing.
Will James Patterson read my letter or write back?
Maybe. Publishers pass reader mail to their authors, but best-selling writers receive far more than they can personally answer. Include your return address to give yourself the best shot at a reply or a signed bookplate, but treat a personal response as a bonus, not a guarantee.
Is this James Patterson's home address?
No. This is the public head office of their publisher, Hachette Book Group. We never publish authors' private home addresses — mailing someone's home would not be okay. Routing fan mail through the publisher is the standard, expected way to write to an author.
Can I send James Patterson a book to sign or a gift?
Better not to. Hachette Book Group — like most publishers — asks readers not to send books, photos, or items to be signed, and can't forward parcels, gifts, or cash. A letter is the surer bet; PostPal sends letters and printed documents, not packages.
How do I mail James Patterson a letter without a printer?
Write or upload your letter to PostPal with the address prefilled. We print it, add your return address, and mail it for you — no printer, stamps, or post office trip needed.
