An article on Forbes.com about one of my favourite authors, Robert Jordan, who writes the famous fantasy series of The Wheel of Time (WoT).
Forbes.com has published an article on their website which profiles Robert Jordan, his illness, and the outstanding support that his fans have shown. Several WoT fan sites are mentioned, including Dragonmount.
The article is filled with some great insight, and includes a discussion of the fate of the final Wheel of Time novel, A Memory of Light.
Two cool phrases from the article:
There are readers, and then there are fans. Readers offer condolences when a favorite author falls ill. Fans offer bone marrow.
The Wheel of Time is like Lord of the Rings on steroids.
