The next question was about women and men characters. The questioner said that the women characters seemed to be written by a different person, and wanted to know if that person was Harriet. It got a big laugh.
He answered NO and then proceeded to say that he tries very hard to get into the character he’s writing about. He mentioned that sometimes when he’s helping Harriet prepare dinner she’ll go, “Have you been writing about Padan Fain today?” He said she’s usually spot on, though it might not be Padan Fain but Semirhage, or Graendal or someone of that ilk.
He then told a story about how when he was a little boy (I didn’t catch the age but I would guess 5 or younger) a neighbor woman went to pick him up. He mentioned that he had noticed the way the dress shifted with her movements and how unlike it was with his mother and how the perfume this woman was wearing was different than his mothers, and when this woman went to pick him up she slipped a bit and his “face got buried in her busom” and he felt a bit light headed. (big laugh) The woman laughed and called him precocious. He then said that ever since that day he’s paid special attention to women. He said that he’s paid so much attention to women that he now has an insight into how they react. This is why he has tried to create a gender equal environment in WoT.
I’m going to break it here because this is getting very long.
