Online Community
I’ve been quite astounded by the fans, especially the online community. There are hundreds I’m told, and some people say thousands, but I think I can safely say hundreds of web sites dedicated to fans, run by fans. It’s one reason why I don’t really have a fan site of my own, a web site of my own, aside from what Tor Books gives me.
The fans are really remarkable. They discuss the books in incredible detail, argue about things in incredible detail. I was at a convention called Dragon*Con in Atlanta, which has a track dedicated to the Wheel of Time, and one of the things that I did was to hand out the awards after the final round of the trivia contest. Some of the questions that these people were answering, I would have had to go to my notes to find the answer to. I mean, “What is the name of the cat at the inn called The Queen’s Blessing in Caemlyn?” Ahhh, and they knew it. It was remarkable.
