Interview #168: SFRevu Interview, Entry #4

Ernest Lilley

Is there any chance that you’ll finish up this storyline and then do some other works in this universe?

Robert Jordan

No, not really. There are three short novels that I’m going to do. They’re prequels in a way, and they cover specific incidents that I think are interesting, not considering the major characters really.

One of them will be an expansion of the novella, “New Spring”, which appeared in the collection called Legends . I wrote that at 35,000 words after a great deal of compressing, and I had to drop several storylines to get it down to that length. So, I’d like to do it the way I’d done it originally, at 70,000 words perhaps. There are two others of that sort that would be shortish, but no, I won’t write any more in this universe when I reach the end…unless I come up with something stunning, otherwise I’d just be running over the same ground again, and I don’t want to do that. I want to do something different.
