otomo Posted May 24, 2012 Report Share Posted May 24, 2012 Don't see a topic on this, but Brandon Sanderson is the guest of honor this weekend at Bay Con in Santa Clara, CA. http://www.baycon.org for those interested. Anyone else going? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
otomo Posted May 28, 2012 Author Report Share Posted May 28, 2012 Reporting from Baycon: It's a pretty small con which is neat, a lot of access to writers and the like. Brandon was both extremely friendly and extremely knowledgeable. I watched 5 panels in which he spoke or moderated. Three of them were geared at new authors and various challenges to overcome, and then he had a panel on worldbuilding and finally just an interview panel where he spoke about his past as he tried to gain a career and then his future writings. A lot of Wheel of Time discussion in that one. He reconfirmed that he'd rather not write wheel of time prequels/sequels, but gave a caveat that if Harriet MacDougal (editor) insisted on having them done, he would write them. Other than that, plugged the two novellas we know about. If anyone has any more questions, I'll try to answer though I didn't really take notes! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tamzin Ashevai Posted August 6, 2012 Report Share Posted August 6, 2012 (edited) Hmm ... obviously, I missed this. I'm a local, so this kind of sucks. Anyway, I've never attended a Con; only book-signings. I guess I need to plug myself into the Con-Sphere if I want to attend. Any suggestions?
