Pod Cast Interview With Author Robert Jordan

This is a link to a pod cast interview with Author Robert Jordan, Author of the 12 volume series the Wheel of Time.
Robert Jordan passed away at the end of last year, and has written quite a few other books, aside of the 12 books in the Wheel of Time series.
I haven’t read this series of books, but that seems to be a temporary situation to be remedied very soon.

Neth Space, on who’s blog I read about the interview says

The 30-minute interview with Robert Jordan was conducted in 1994 as he was touring for the release of Lord of Chaos, the 6th book of the Wheel of Time. Incidentally, this is about the time I began reading the Wheel of Time which eventually lead to my love of genre and a presence on the internet (I was still a few years from the step to the internet at that time). In the mythos of Wheel of Time this discussion would be considered non-spoiler (even then), and really is all the more interesting (and timeless) as a result.

Being an avid reader and wannabe writer I am always curious as to how and where an author gets his inspiration and how exactly he goes about composing the book and keeping in touch with his thoughts from moment to moment and chapter to chapter.

Robert Jordan does answer a lot of these questions, in relation to how he created his books and fantasy worlds.
