Interview #96: MSN eFriends Interview, Entry #8

Are you the one that sets the pace of the books being published, or is there a “plan” behind the timing of when they come out?

Robert Jordan

The books are published as fast as I can write them. In fact, in the beginning, you might say they were being published faster than I can write them! The normal lead time from ending a book to publication is eight months to a year. My last three books have been published within 60 days of completion by me.

Really? I’ve been reading them since they came out, and the “delay” between the next ones seems to get longer…or maybe I read faster now.

Robert Jordan

That’s why we now are out on a longer stretch between the books. But I do hope that the next one will come a little bit faster.
