Announcing Tor.com Wheel of Time on Facebook and Twitter

Tor.com Wheel of Time Tor.com is pleased to announce the addition of a Wheel of Time portal, on both Facebook and Twitter, to our little family of pages.

Overseing this corner of the Pattern is Jennifer Liang, who has been active in various forms of fandom since 1998. Jennifer is now an administrator and co-webmaster of Dragonmount, the largest Wheel of Time fan site. She is the director of Wheel of Time programing for Dragon*Con and the chair of JordanCon, a Wheel of Time-themed convention. In 2009, Jennifer became the maintainer of the WOTFAQ, a document that has existed online in various forms since 1993. When not obsessing over who killed Asmodean, Jennifer teaches middle school social studies and blogs about recipes, restaurants and gardening.

TorDotWoT joins the already existing Tor.com portals for science fiction, fantasy, urban fantasy, steampunk, and art. Come join the conversation!

This is one of the 2 book series that I love. The other one is Necroscope by Brian Lumley. I wish that I had both time and money enough to get to one of the conventions down in GA, but I don't think that I'll ever really be able to go so I have to be stuck at home and read about all of the fun after it happens.

I...don't really understand the point of all this Facebook compartmentalization? What is the point?

Agreed. Now instead of just just one page on the net for Wheel of Time you can check seven! Isn't that better?

My brain hurts. Just go to Dragonmount.com. Anything you need to know is there.

WOT deserves all the specialized attention it's getting. Tor has done such a wonderful job with the ebook re-releases and new covers, introducing Rand to a new group of fans. This portal will only help that.

Yes, Dragonmount has been my go to source for WOT info, but it's great to have another source helmed by such a knowledgeable individual. Great news!

AWESOMENESS. But Jen already knows who killed Asmodean. She knew before most of us did too. =)

I don't think the point is that WoT needs more places to discuss. I think the point is that WoT dominates Tor's facebook and twitter postings. Separating them out is a service not to WoTers but to all those who don't care about WoT, but want to follow Tor's streams. Sort of like how back in the day rasfw-rj was formed to protect rasfw from
being overloaded by WoT stuff.

This group obviously doesn't include me since I'm posting on this announcement ;)
