I suppose it's possible. Anthony is also published by Tor, and certainly
could do it. Whether he'll do it
well is another matter.
He might: he demonstrated in early works that he could write, and turn out quality material. He simply discovered that endless Xanth retreads
sell. (Anthony uses money made from his writing to buy undeveloped virgin land near him in Florida and
keep it virgin and undeveloped. He goes where the sales are. I admire the impulse, but haven't been able to read the resulting work in years.)
