Thus Spake The Creator Below
are collected various Jordan questions and answers, and
reports from interviews. Not all quotes are guaranteed to
be here, although I try to be thorough, and in some cases
I've deleted answers that repeat material more or less
verbatim. They are organized into categories by topic,
and some are in more than one category, so you shouldn't
find it hard to find a quotation you're looking for. Try
'Miscellaneous' if none of the categories seem to fit. As
for such categories as 'Sex and Sexuality' and 'Bela' -
you asked the questions, I just sort them.
And please stop asking who killed Asmodean or if
Moiraine will be back. 'Read And Find Out' is already far
too long!
In several cases, the people who provided the quotes
have included comments of their own on the questions or
answers. As such, any interpretations of Jordan's words
do not necessarily represent my personal opinion. A few
comments were written by me, and they are in blue
text and signed Like this - Raina. so you should have no trouble working
out which is which.
