Which writer will become Jimmy Donaldson's partner in literary endeavors?

A blogger with hundreds of millions of followers (his YouTube channel alone has over 390 million subscribers, making it the most popular on the platform) has decided it's time to conquer a new market.

And he won't be doing it alone, but in collaboration with professional writer James Patterson, known for "Women's Murder Club" and stories about Inspector Alex Cross.

Patterson visited Jimmy at his studio in South Carolina, and the conversation, by all accounts, was productive. The book will be published by HarperCollins, with translations promised in 15 languages, but the title and release date remain unclear, reports Nytimes.
The plot centers on an extreme global competition where 100 players compete to prove their leadership skills, surviving in dangerous conditions around the world. In the battle for a billion-dollar prize, participants form relationships and betray each other while trying to avoid elimination or death.

Major publishers fought for the project with such passion, it was as if it were the Harry Potter of the TikTok generation. Ultimately, HarperCollins won, but the deal's amount, of course, was not disclosed.
