I’ve read tons of posts on here but realized today I didn’t have a good reason to not be a member! Every time I meet an IRL cosmere fan, I get super excited. So why wouldn’t I interact here?! Excited to be a part of the community. That said, any tips, tricks, rules, or expectations would be appreciated! I’m starting to look through the forums for stuff like that but any links/info would be appreciated. A little about myself. I discovered Way of Kings in 2013 and the rest is history haha. I’m a massive fan and have read almost everything Sanderson has written. The interlocking lore of the Cosmere was a fantasy fan’s dream come true. Getting to read these books over and over is so fun. And Brandon’s commitment to his work and the fans is so refreshing. Hope you guys and gals and non-binary pals are doing well! Glad to be here!

Hello everyone. Colombian living in Canada here- I stumbled upon BS’s writings about three weeks ago with The Final Empire. Been listening (audiobooks) almost nonstop - After finishing the first Mistborn series and then Elantris I started Stormlight. Right now going through Oathbringer - and going through these often exiting, sometimes frustrating, but always gripping narratives I finally decided I had to talk to folks who are also into this and would know what I’m talking about, and so here I am !

Ello fellow fans, tis I, your new fellow in the fellowship of Brandon’s fellows.

hi! I have loved the cosmere since watching merphy napier's video on beginner to fantasy books and she recommended mistborn! The only forum I have been on before is reddit so I'm not exactly sure how this works.

Hey all! I’m dompizan aka Dominic, and I’ve been a Sanderson reader since mid-2019 when I was looking for the longest book that I could bring with me on a trip! I’ve been watching Shardcast for about 2 years now, and I’m super excited for the Lost Metal and the secret projects!

I've never been part of an online forum community, but I've been wanting to create a Tutorial for a mistcloak. I figured this would be the best place to put something like that since I also don't have a blog or anything!

Hello! I am a big fan of Brandon’s, having only discovered his work early last year! I am up to date on all of his books as of now and In looking for more information on the coppermind wiki I stumbled across the huge community at the 17th shard! Love all that is being done, signed up for Patreon too! Just wanted to do my opening scene so to speak, thanks for having me!

I have read all sanderson books till date

Hey! I am a huge fan of Brandon Sanderson and have read almost all of his books. I love the cosmere and am slightly obsessed. My friend was browsing this forum instead of doing schoolwork and encouraged me to join. Here we go!

Hello everyone! I've been a Sanderfan for several years and it's so great to finally join the Shard! If you want to know a little about me, I'm a ballerinaEdgedancer and an Allomantic baker. My current craziness is trying to adapt the eight basic Allomantic metals to work as part of the Dungeons and Dragons Pathfinder system. I'll be seeing you all around!

Hello! I am new to Sanderson and forums. Love all things Sanderson, cosmere, and fantasy. Excited to join the community and would to discuss with anyone who is interested. Thanks! Life before death.

Hi! I just created my profile like 3mins ago but am not new to the Cosmere. I Have red Mistborn 1st series and 2nd(or what's of it so far), I've read Elantris and Warbreaker, and the whole Stormlight Archive. I'm looking forward to meeting the other fans of the Cosemere! I like to play D&D and have played it for like 3-4 years now.

Hello, everyone! I am new to the 17th Shard, but not new to Brandon Sanderson. I have read the whole Stormlight Archive(except for edgedancer), the whole Mistborn series, Elantris, The Rithmatist, Skyward and Starsight, and I am reading Warbreaker right now. I think most people's favorite series is The Stormlight Archive, but every time I read another Brandon Sanderson book, it becomes my new favorite. Also, I am a Windrunner.

Hey hey! Long time fan, but new to the 17th Shard! My name is Arel! Owner of bookbeau.com where I make cool stuff and neonxp.com where we host dope virtual events. Hosting a Cosmere virtual event would be the dream =D

Ok so, almost 3 years ago I joined this forum and made an introduction post, only to never post again! Yes, I'm useless. But I'm going to turn over a new leaf. Nothing's really changed in 3 years. I still love The Cosmere, I still listen to Shardcast regularly, as well as all of Brandon's books on a cycle of repeat, (I've just actually finished WOT for the first time this year, before i started my Stormlight reread), and I'm currently half way through my first reread of Rhythm of War. Anyway, I'm going to try to be more active this time round. Speak soon,

Hello All, I'm sure you've all heard this before. Long time reader of everything Sanderson, but I have stayed away from this shard for a long time, RoW SPOILERS? I'll try to be vague, but its why I finally have come here. BUT JEEZZEEEE!!!! I just finished that Rhythm of War and oh my goodness. I simply needed to talk to others and listen to others and vent about how amazing this all is. The huge changes, the sudden duping of he who cannot be duped. it just flipped everything I thought and all the presuppositions I depended on. I have a big issue in stories like these of putting a character on a pedestal and assuming that everything they did, was done for good/would in the long run work out. But like, Sanderson just flipped that on its head. As such I need to delve into some forums and discussions. Once again Sanderson pulls ahead as my favorite author.

Hello! I am new to 17th Shard and have just started watching Shardcast. My partner introduced me to Mistborn back in July of 2019, so I have only been aware of the Cosmere for a year and change. I have read all released Mistborn, Warbreaker, Elantris, Stormlight (up to date on RoW), and all of Arcanum Unbounded. Pretty much the only thing I haven't read is White Sand. I have been incredibly spoiled at being able to read the next book at any time so now that I have to actually wait.. for each book to be written.. how do y'all do it? My crazy theories only grow in the dark.

Hi everyone my name is Frosche! I'm not super new to the universe but only gone through 2 of series. Main purpose of joining the forums is to get some feedback and understanding of the material. I've always wanted to see a Mistborn video game so setting out to create one myself. I do however have some question regarding how others have visualised the books, knowing that everyone does this differently. I'd like to get a wider understanding how everyone thinks the world of Mistborn works! Hope to see you around in the posts!

I'm a long-time reader of Sanderson's works but a first-time poster. I'm a family man and software developer in Tucson, Arizona. Over the years I have loved all his books, he is easily the best author of all time. My favorite is a tie between 'The Way of Kings' and 'Towers of Midnight.' I've never been very good at posting in forums. But I'll try to drop by from time to time (especially when I'm in the middle of a fantastic Sanderson book).

Hello, My name is Mathis and while I am new to this forum, I have been reading Sanderson novels since my mom introduced them to me when I was 15 or 16. I met Vin when I needed her and became a fan of his books. I have since read Elantris and Warbreaker, as well as the Wax & Wayne books. I didn’t realize there was a bigger universe at play until I read Mistborn: Secret History. If there’s one thing I love, it’s expansive fictional universes. I immediately picked up The Way of Kings, and I have just finished my second read through of all three SLA books. I am very excited for book 4!

Hey everyone. Long time Sanderson fan and lurker, first time poster. The Shardcast made me finally break down and check out the forum and I'm kicking myself for not doing it earlier.

Hi! I'm gonna be honest: I'm here because I don't know anyone else in real life who reads Sanderson - let alone reads fantasy, goddamit! I've read Mistborn, SA, The Emperor's Soul, and that's pretty much it, since my local library has a deplorable selection (those are all the books they have) It's thanks to Sanderson that I have learned to love reading, and it's thanks to him that I've learned so much more English. So, on a more personal note, thank you, Sanderson, for changing my life and helping me expand my diction; it has helped me with school more than you would believe. Who knew reading helped with essays, hah! I had always been one of those guys who said they "hated" reading, until I picked up fantasy. I'd never read a book out of my volition before then, lol, because I didn't grow up in a bookish environment. Anyways, I've been thinking about getting a Cosmere tattoo: the allomantic symbol for bronze. It's not my favourite of the allomantic metals, but I like the meaning it carries. Bronze is burned to detect other mistings, so, well, I'm hoping the tattoo helps me find other Sanderson fans familiar with the symbol. What do you guys think? -Vahlia
