James Patterson: US author sorry for saying white writers face racism
Author James Patterson has apologised for saying older white writers face " just another form of racism" which makes it harder for them to find work.
The best-selling US writer made his comments to last week.
But following a backlash, he Posted an apology and said he did not actually think white writers suffered racism.
" I apologise for saying white male writers having trouble finding work is a form of racism, " the 75-year-old wrote on Facebook on Tuesday.
" I absolutely do not Believe that racism is practiced against white writers.
" Please know that I strongly support a diversity of voices being heard - in literature, in Hollywood, everywhere. "

He was the best-selling author of adult fiction in the UK in 2020, and as the most-borrowed author from British libraries for the 14th year in a row.
His best-known works include The Women 's Murder Club novel series and another series About Alex Cross, a black detective and psychologist, portrayed by actors Morgan Freeman and Tyler Perry in film adaptations.
According to the Sunday Times, Patterson said he worries that it is hard for white men to find writing jobs in film, TV, theatre and publishing.
" What's that all about? " Patterson said. " Can you get a job? Yes. Is it harder? Yes. It's even harder for older writers. You don't meet many 52-year-old white males. "
