Posted June 7, 2020 Hello guys! My name is Daniella, I'm from Venezuela and I joined the discord server and this forum a few weeks ago when I finished reading all Cosmere stories for the first time, but I haven't been active in introducing myself or discussing anything and it feels like I'm being a creepy stalker if I don't at least introduce myself... I think this community is so cool and I hope I can make some friends here as I've only convinced two people I know to start reading a Sanderson book so far haha. Anyhow, my tag name is Nana303 is discord and I'll introduce myself there today as well. Happy reading! 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

New people are also fun, and converts to this cult fandom are always welcomed as long as I get their Breath 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Brandon started out with the magic system for Scadrial and then wrote the plot for it, so the magic system is amazing. I can't wait for the rest of the Eras to come out Just now, nana303 said: That was my intention, but I kept procrastinating my introduction and more and more However you get here, the fandom is great! 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Yes I have a bit of an obsession and I've listened to Brandon's live signing sessions and I've spent hours in the Coppermind, Brandon's website, Arcanum and I've listend to some podcast from this site too so I am aware of how Brandon wrote most of his stuff. I am still amazed at thee amount of awesome quality content he constantly produces. And yes, the fandom seems so great and nerdy and i love it 4 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Do you have a favorite Cosmere character so far? that's a good question! Maybe Kaladin or Hoid, Lightsong is also amazing and his name is so beautiful. Jasnah is also one of my faves.
