I live in South America but while on vacation here in the states got a chance to see Brandon Sanderson at his signing in Albuquerque NM. He said it was his last stop on the tour so apologized ahead of timed if he started ranting. However, he did an excellent presentation and admitted to having gotten a chance to edit a chapter from WoR just before the signing. As has been mentioned before, Sanderson has said that he hopes to have WoR out in November but couldn't promise anything.He also mentioned though that they were talking about a January release which would be a year from the day that a memory of light was released. Then he cracked an awesome joke about New Mexicans being use to waiting any way so we will be fine (Because G.R.R Martin lives in NM). Some one in the crowd asked about a possible Alcatraz 5 to which Sanderson responded that h'ed actually started working on an outline for it and a few chapters but it had been slow going because he had to buy back the rights for the book. Sanderson then proceeded to read am intro to one of his chapters that he refers to as an epigraph which was pretty funny. Some one asked if he planned to do more with Legion to which he replied that was working on something else and that he hoped to be able to turn Legion into a mini series like the BBCs Sherlock home. He also read a brief bit of the next Legion but stopped about two paragraphs in as he realized how unorganized he'd written it the rough draft and kept getting lost. I finally got to ask a question about the Stormlight archives that windrunner17 and Chaos helped me with which was: "Why Can Kaladin surgebind with any gem type but Jasnah and Shallan need specific types?" Later during the signing I got to ask two more questions which he kindly wrote into my books. The first was: "Is cultivation's holder still alive?" "Where Cultivation and Honor romantically involved?" So all and all it was a good first signing to go to and I'm glad I finally got to meet Sanderson, he is a passionate writer who is very inspiring and I encourage everyone to see him speak at least once.
