View original postJordan never really took things higher than the YA level of appropriateness (though it could be argued the damane parts in The Great Hunt were heavily into BDSM), but he wrote about drinking and some allusions to sex here and there (Rand and Aviendha having their little getaway in Seanchan was probably the closest it came to a real sex scene). I would be interested to see the last books broken down by author (what RJ had already written, what BS added) and see if he did write about it in those books.
Well, on the writing process of those last three books in general, really, but obviously this kind of thing comes up a lot, even if it's not broken down neatly.
So, the New York Times has asked why Mormons produce no serious writers...

Well, there's enough going on that it's not a big deal, but yeah, it's obvious once you notice it

I'm curious how much he wrote when he was finishing Wheel of Time.

"Serious" writers. I assume that would include competent as well....

I didn't know that "sex scenes, graphic violence and swearing" are the sings of a serious literature *NM*

Well, they're not, but their absence can sometimes be noticable (Mistborn spoilers)

To the extent that they represent a realistic, as opposed to idealistic, world, they sure are
