Link Von Kelsier Harvey Posted February 14, 2014 Report Share Posted February 14, 2014 I was browsing facebook, and saw this, quoted from one of my acquaintance's posts. I just about died. The post: Today in Brandon Sanderson's class, he gave a signed copy of Words of Radiance, (yes, the thousand-page book that doesn't come out until next month) to the first person who noticed he was holding it and gasped. Pretty sure everyone's going to be staring at him next week to see if he does it again. So, lucky whoever, I hope you're happy. BOOOOOO. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Delightful Posted February 14, 2014 Report Share Posted February 14, 2014 (edited) Can't. Breathe. Literally have my mouth hanging open. I don't know whether that was an extremely kind or extremely cruel thing to do. Certainly cruel for those of us who don't live in Utah. Or America. At least we're all on earth. I believe.

PeterAhlstrom Posted February 14, 2014 Report Share Posted February 14, 2014 Sigh. I am so ready for this book to be out already. The person least anxious for the book release is probably Brandon. 13 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aminar Posted February 14, 2014 Report Share Posted February 14, 2014 Agreed. It's not that I can't wait, it's that I want every ad that pops up to stop taunting me about Words of Radiance.(It'll likely move to skin game really fast...) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Meamzed Posted February 14, 2014 Report Share Posted February 14, 2014 This is like pulling teeth…. the wait is pure agony, especially because I'm living remotely at the moment, and won't be able to get the book for a long (like 2-3 days…. agonizingly long) time! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Argent Posted February 14, 2014 Report Share Posted February 14, 2014 May that kid find shelter in the Creator's hand. Stormfather, watch over his soul. Dismemberment by frenzied Sanderfans (Fandersons also sounds nicely) is not how I would like to go... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Delightful Posted February 14, 2014 Report Share Posted February 14, 2014 Fandersons. That definitely flows more easily than Sanderfans. Just looks slightly like Fathersons misspelled. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Crisapx Posted February 14, 2014 Report Share Posted February 14, 2014 Oh damnation! if it was me, as soon, as the book touched my hands, I'd have ran home as if a lion was chasing me! 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+Quitecontrary Posted February 14, 2014 Report Share Posted February 14, 2014 I don't know whether that was an extremely kind or extremely cruel thing to do. Certainly cruel for those of us who don't live in Utah. Or America. At least we're all on earth. I believe. I'll hold on to this belief, Delightful. It will reach us eventually. *sigh* And I'll probably withdraw from 17thshard after March 4th for a week or so because I will just die with envy at what everyone else will be saying after reading it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kaladin Kal Posted February 14, 2014 Report Share Posted February 14, 2014 the jealous me is screaming "ahhhhh...... this is not fair" Me: What are you waiting for? ! Throw it away....or give it to me I will keep it safe! The Guy/girl: The Ring book is mine. [opens the book on and start reading] Me: N000000000000000! :o :o :o Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Natans Posted February 14, 2014 Report Share Posted February 14, 2014 And this is what are passing in the head of almost all 17th Shardies It's already time to hid to don't receive spoillers or we're good ? 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bloodfalcon Posted February 14, 2014 Report Share Posted February 14, 2014 Does anyone know if this person had to sign away his spoiler ability? I'm about to straight abandon the internet if he was just given the book with no strings attached. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GreyPilgrim Posted February 14, 2014 Report Share Posted February 14, 2014 Oh damnation! if it was me, as soon, as the book touched my hands, I'd have ran home as if a lion was chasing me! Except for the fact that you are already enrolled in a class taught by Brandon. That alone would glue me to my seat. That and the shock. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DragonReborn Posted February 14, 2014 Report Share Posted February 14, 2014 There is no way that kid paid any attention during class. If I received that book in class, I would start reading right away and probably have the biggest smile on my face the whole time. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StormLight_Luc Posted February 14, 2014 Report Share Posted February 14, 2014 Nah, too afraid for his life to properly enjoy it! I can see him in the middle of said class, book to his chest, arms arround it, hunching over it, hugging it tight, eyes darting left, rigt up and center (and down of course), breaking in cold sweat, ready to run at the nearest hint of jeslousy based agression... Suffer, ya lucky bastard! 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aleksiel Posted February 14, 2014 Report Share Posted February 14, 2014 Except for the fact that you are already enrolled in a class taught by Brandon. That alone would glue me to my seat.

Green Hoodie Mistborn Posted February 14, 2014 Report Share Posted February 14, 2014 Haha, that is awesome @Peter I can only imagine how ready you are for this to be released Peter so we can all stop talking about our anticipation and go dark while we read for a bit Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Swimmingly Posted February 14, 2014 Report Share Posted February 14, 2014 Serendipity, your task is clear: indoctrinate this poor fellow to our website. Pry the spoilers from him piece by bloody piece. And, for Harmony's sake, speak up first next time! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luke.spence Posted February 14, 2014 Report Share Posted February 14, 2014 This is almost enough to make me want to move to Utah even though I have absolutely no reason to move to that area of the country outside of the fact that that's where Sanderon lives lol.

Serendipity friend you are ALMOST be most lucky shardie in the forum, but don't be sad because you don't got the book if you had you would have to take your leave of the forum until the release because the "powers that all watch" wouldn't let you discuss anything. That would very sad had the book first than anyone, know all secrets,...... have a signed 1th edtion copy...... Given by the man himself.... and ...... Damnation man whyyyyyyyy you didn't sitted in the first chair and jumped when you saw the book =) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
