SF is the literature of the theoretically possible, and F is the literature of the impossible.

Robert Jordan... is a lot of writer

I never do a full outline, and if I did, I would not feel bound to it, because the view from inside a scene can be different from the view outside it. But neither do I just start writing and see what happens; I am far more disciplined than that.

But I don't read or listen for pleasure. I have too much else to do.

But one must go where one's road leads, even when it's a distressing road.
