We received word today that Robert Jordan has finished writing and editing Knife of Dreams. Straight from RJ:

Yes, Knife of Dreams is finally done. Harriet and I completed the editing this past weekend, and today I finished going over the glossary. A day or two to mull it over and make sure there isn't anything else I want to do, and off it goes to [Tor Books]. It seems like a pretty good book, to me. A long-running thread or two finally get tied off

Before you get too exited though, don't expect this news to move the publication date up. Most likely Tor Books will read it over and make editorial checks. It will also give them a chance to maximize the publicity surrounding the new novel.

Up next for RJ....

I am doing cleanup on my notes in preparation for starting the twelfth book, but I will get in a little fishing this summer, and maybe some golf. Of course, [Harriet and I will] be in San Diego for the International ComicCon [...] and in Atlanta for DragonCon at Labor Day. They have a complete Wheel of Time track, and they've been asking me for years, but this is the first time I've actually been free to attend.

Get ready follks. If you're in the US, you'll have several chances to meet Robert Jordan and spend some time with him. Check out those conventions, most espeically DragonCon which is going to be one incredibly cool event. If you can't do one of those, stay tuned in the coming months for information about his US book tour.

Knife od Dreams is due to be released on October 11, 2005 in the US and UK.
