Some of the candidates that come to mind are Robert Jordan, Terry Goodkind and Brian Sanderson. However for my purposes I disqualify Robert Jordan since he is dead. For my purposes the author must be aliver and writting.
A hardcover 1000 pages is different than a trade paperback 1000 pages is different than a mass market paperback 1000 pages is different than ADE 1000 pages.

So which definition of 1000 pages do you want to use?
I took the bolded sentence to mean "anything that is over 1000 pages, regardless of format has that many pages, will work", even though he didn't specify ADE pages as qualifying.
