So you don’t want to answer questions about which scenes you wrote and what scenes Robert Jordan wrote, but has anybody come up to you and said like “I think you wrote this scene”, but actually Robert Jordan wrote that?
All the time. And it’s awesome. I’ve released a few things, and if you come up to me later I’ll tell you exactly what scene it is, so I’m not spoiling it for others. But there’s one that everyone’s like “I can so see Sanderson’s hand in this, look at this and look at this” and one of the things they say is “Sanderson uses contractions, and Robert Jordan doesn’t use contractions, for the character POVs”. But Robert Jordan did in his notes, he just took out the contractions later on. And that was a scene I posted in exactly out of the notes, and it was hilarious to me.
This scene was actually dictated by RJ in oral storytelling mode, so it’s not too difficult to see why fans could see his hand in it. He admitted later that he had to revise the language.
