dreamingofcheese he/him Posted June 22, 2014 Posted June 22, 2014 Hello all you Brandon fans. I been in your ranks since they announced Brandon as the finisher of TWoT. I was shocked at the audacity of a writer I have never heard of taking up the my favorite series. I bought all of Brandon's books. I doubt I have tell you what an amazing shock that I had it was reading mistborn. Now that I have read most of his material I can say beyond a doubt that he is the Master of Epic fantasy and I wish to become his apprentice. 4
Quiver he/him Posted June 22, 2014 Posted June 22, 2014 You're in luck then! Have you heard of the Writing Excuses podcasts? 15 minute sections, weekly, with writing advice from a number of authors including Brandon. Not quite the same as a personal apprenticeship but...it's a start. 3
Tien'sPetLurg she/her Posted June 23, 2014 Posted June 23, 2014 I agree with you. It's fascinating watching him develop his skills. He seems like a nice person too. If you are an aspiring writer, you are going to find this place to be a treasure box of information. 1

This is the first forum I joined, if you have any tips I will appreciate them. Thanx Quiver.

Um this maybe an awkward question but what I'd a Lurg?

dreamingofcheese he/him Posted June 25, 2014 Author Posted June 25, 2014 (edited) A small, frog-like creature from the Stormlight Archive. Thanks for the info. I have read the TWoK and WoR three times each and I didn't catch that. BS has some in-depth world building. Well thanks for helping a rookie. Edited June 25, 2014 by dreamingofcheese
