The reference is to Sue Grafton’s Kinsey Milhone “alphabet” series, which ended with “Y” at the author’s death. Grafton explicitly rejected having a ghost writer finish the series and to their credit, her heirs are honoring her wish.

In the case of the Wheel of Time series, Robert Jordan's wife Harriet picked Brandon Sanderson to write the last book after her husband died. It was Robert's wish that the series be finished.
