New Spring

Robert Jordan has spoken...

I realize books take a long time to write, but why did it take 2.5 years to write this and then leave out Mat? Will the next book take as long?

I hope the next book will not take as long. "New Spring" took several months to write, and I also spent several months working on the illustrated guide. So those, between the two of them, took a lot more time than I thought it was going to. That delayed this book considerably.
