mosstheinflatablecow Posted July 9, 2017 Report Share Posted July 9, 2017 I guess that this is a place to introduce myself, which I'm not very good at. I've been reading Sanderson books for ~4 years now, but only just decided to join here as I've been rereading all the Cosmere novels. I'm 25, a pastor, and enjoy reading, video games, and playing sports. I don't really know what else to say about myself, so instead meet my kitten, Lightsong the Bold! Below pictured reading Arcanum Unbounded, because he's a Sanderson fan, too. Also, if you want to know anything about me, feel free to ask me anything. 13 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I haven't been a pastor for too long, though, and I'm not the only teaching pastor at my church so I've only written some 15 sermons so far. It'll almost definitely happen at some point, though. Sanderson's approach to character growth, the complexity of humanity, and his thoughtful approach to issues of faith are fantastic. The stories are memorable, too, so they'd be excellent for use in sermons! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Have you read any non-Cosmere stories? If you could have any magic system (Allomancy, Surgebinding, Aviar, etc.), which would you have? My answers to those first two questions are probably predictable, given my kitten, but War breaker is my favorite Cosmere book and Lightsong is possibly my favorite character in any work of fiction ever. Honorable mentions for favorite characters in Cosmere are Elend, Wayne, Steris, and Syl. Apart from Cosmere, I've read The Rithmatist and Steelheart (and have Firefight waiting to be read). If I could be a full Mistborn, I'd probably choose allomancy because it's so versatile and doesn't require much that's terribly rare or sacrifice of myseld (like feruchemy does). If I'd have to be a misting because that's pretty much what it's like at this point on Scadrial, then I'd probably choose surgebinding. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mosstheinflatablecow Posted March 5, 2018 Author Report Share Posted March 5, 2018 In case anyone is wondering, true to form with all Returned, Lightsong has grown to be much taller than the average human from Nalthis...um...I mean cat. Still a kitten, too. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't know his parents, but based on what he and his littermates look like, I think he's half Maine Coon and half Russian Blue. He takes after the Maine Coon side, but most of his littermates were sleek and grey with blue eyes. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tesh Posted March 10, 2018 Report Share Posted March 10, 2018 I am in love. My family can't have cats because my dad and I are both allergic, him worse than me. He also hates cats. I love them. We are sort of looking into a dog, though. Only problem is that it has to be hypoallergenic. So I have parakeets. And we have the cutest rabid ever. Who I am allergic to. But I still love him. My brother has a goldfish. His name is Pants. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
