Ruminations on decades spent writing stories that run more than 1,000,000 words

I don’t get that at all. Bob Howard is certainly not stupid, but he’s not a genius-level intellect. And certainly in the earlier books, he is more than a bit bumbling: he’s basically an everyman, surrounded by people and beings smarter, more competent, and much more powerful (well, at least until he becomes the new Eater of Souls and acquires the ability to kill every living being in a 250m radius).
