I've always felt that the books we are reading are actually what Loial is writing - his book about these events that he starts writing during the events in book 1. Granted, I could easily be wrong about this, but it wouldn't surprise me in the least.
One thing that excites me, though, is that it was long ago that I read that RJ had written the last scene, and more recently Brandon has said that the last scene, as written by RJ, will appear in the book. This is encouraging, as it means that it wasn't just a "make it up as I go" thing (which I'm pretty sure is how Tolkien wrote LotR), but he had direction and a plan.
I'm looking forward as much as anyone to the release of WoT book 12.
