Were are the several examples again?
How much Patterson have you read? I'll give you a couple of examples. London Bridges, one of the Alex Cross series which he purportedly still writes himself, is so bad that I gave up reading the series there and then. And his The Murder of King Tut, which was admittedly a collaboration but according to Patterson was a labour of love and obsession, was risible. Patterson is a clear example of overproduction damaging the quality of the output.

And maybe the one you refer to (Title???) is one he took longer over. Can't comment without a reference.
