Wind and Truth Launch Party Ideas (Unaffiliated)

[Etedbert he/him]

As Wind and Truth is around the corner, my boss at the bookstore I work at has warmed to my pitch of a Wind and Truth launch party! Very in tradition with things like midnight release parties, but we’d just open earlier in the morning (because no one wants to work till midnight on a Thursday, lmao)

As my coworker and I brainstorm ideas for it, I figured I’d access the brain trust here and ask, if you had a local bookstore running a Wind and Truth launch party near you, what would you want from it?

 

current ideas are:

-large scale 3D print of Urithiru to use as a book display, based on Swinny’s fantastic 3D model here: https://www.printables.com/model/114895-urithiru-from-the-stormlight-archive

-some sort of themed food, preferably something sweet (difficult, with all the savory/spicy dishes on Roshar)

-A laptop set up for people to take the Radiant Order quiz

 

a long shot idea that probably won’t happen, is me making epoxy resin Spheres to give away, but I’m still brainstorming how to best make them with the gemstone in the center.

Pancakes, probably silver-dollar size tasting pancakes. 10 Kinds Well, 9, the tenth is honorary.

While not a "release" party, this thread likely has some ideas you can steal pilfer borrow.

Why not just find an appropriate cat's eye marble?

Hope that helps
