Then I can enjoy all the RAFOs on the live streams too haha (so much for willpower) It is kind of fun listening to Brandon's reading too. I've listened to the first one three times haha. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Starspren44 Posted March 7, 2022 Report Share Posted March 7, 2022 I will definitely be reading them, try to control the spoilers 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Quivil Posted March 8, 2022 Report Share Posted March 8, 2022 Uhm. Nayay? Idk. Maybe. It will have to depend on my self-control. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nerpspren Posted March 9, 2022 Author Report Share Posted March 9, 2022 Upon listening to Brandon's reading of the secret Project one chapters, I'm glad I did. It basically just sets up the story, and I feel like I would run into the information gleaned inadvertantly sometime in the next year anyways. And the full release is long enough away that I think it will still be fresh and new when I read it for real. Looking forward to the next ones! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pseudonymous Posted March 10, 2022 Report Share Posted March 10, 2022 On 3/2/2022 at 7:21 PM, nerpspren said: I'm curious as to how many of you are planning to read/listen to the sample chapters for the Secret Project books and start theorizing, and how many are wanting to go in fresh when they're released next year? I am undecided and see merits to both. Please comment on your plan (Yay or Nay) and why!! I have already listened to Brandon read part one of secret project 1, and then I might have watched the spoiler discussion on secret project 1 as well. I am so very excited for all of the secret project books I just didn't have the self control to wait! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Green Hoodie Mistborn Posted March 11, 2022 Report Share Posted March 11, 2022 I'd originally planned to stay away... ... but I couldn't resist. So I've listened to him read everything and the spoiler discussions already. My will is weak 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mazman Posted March 14, 2022 Report Share Posted March 14, 2022 I say yay. It doesn't spoil much more than those summaries on the backs of books. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stormlit-man Posted March 14, 2022 Report Share Posted March 14, 2022 I would say yay because they are sample chapters and supposedly aren't the final drafts yet and also for people who aren't as into the comere and Brandon in general it gives them a way to be more exited about the cosmere, it build, up the anticipation and helps support the fantastic writing that is the cosmere. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

thirdsaint85 Posted March 15, 2022 Report Share Posted March 15, 2022 I’m just reading the title name and his inspiration for writing it. I stay away from all early chapter releases as it doesn’t feel the same and I want to go in as blind as possible. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Elegy Posted March 17, 2022 Report Share Posted March 17, 2022 I have to admit that I also gave in to the excitement and read the full sample in both cases as of now. But I don't regret it at all! In both cases, it was just enough to get a good look at what the respective book aims at and is about, but not enough to make me frustrated that I will have to wait. Brandon really chose good point to end these. So with this experience, I will probably go on and just read all of them, as that means I can safely watch the complete livestreams and browse the forum 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AerionBFII Posted March 18, 2022 Report Share Posted March 18, 2022 I swore to myself I wouldn’t go near them or listen to the previews. I swore the same for the Lost metal previews. I caved on them all. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
whattheHoid Posted March 19, 2022 Report Share Posted March 19, 2022 I think I'm going to let myself be completely surprised and not read the free chapters. I want that experience to be saved till I get the books! I'm excited though! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Philomath Posted March 30, 2022 Report Share Posted March 30, 2022 Well I was going to try to stay away from spoilers. Still haven’t seen any yet. But since Brandon had to go release the storming Stormlight 5 prologue and I couldn’t resist that, I’m now wondering why I am waiting for the secret projects which come out sooner… 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is something I want to try once. Doesn't mean that I have to do it with SA, too. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Though I definitely am kind of bummed that there are hours of content on Brandon’s YouTube and Shardcast that I can’t listen to yet. I need things to listen to people! Ha ha. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
