Elithanathile he/him Posted January 29, 2016 Posted January 29, 2016 (edited) Brandon Sanderson wrote the Akashic Records. Edited January 29, 2016 by Bridge Boy 2
Curious Anamaximder he/him Posted January 29, 2016 Posted January 29, 2016 There are no typos in Sanderson books. Brandon is just showing us how those words are actually spelled. Brandon can break the Fifth Wall. 4
Alfa he/him Posted January 30, 2016 Posted January 30, 2016 George R.R. Martin tried to write about Brandon Sanderson. This attempt failed, because he did not manage to kill him in any reasonable way. Brandon Sanderson managed to RAFO himself. Alcatraz can't break any of Sanderson's books. When Brandon was taking the plane he was asked who he was. He gave back a RAFO card. Hoid can insult anybody. Sanderson can insult Hoid. 7
TheOneKEA Posted January 31, 2016 Posted January 31, 2016 Brandon Sanderson stores his works in the cloud. Not an electronic cloud, an actual cloud. He uses it to keep the sun out of his eyes when he is writing. Brandon Sanderson made a bet with himself that he could create a real life spiritweb. You may know it as the Internet. 7
Jeremy he/him Posted February 1, 2016 Posted February 1, 2016 After writing an entire extra book to get back into the mindset of writing Mistborn, Brandon wrote another novella and had it ready for simultaneous publication, releasing 2 and a half novels (Shadows of Self, Bands of Mourning, Mistborn: Secret History) in the span of just 4 months. Seriously, the amount of material the guy puts out is amazing (also, major props to the rest of his editing/continuity team for getting these all out in such a short time). 1

Then he goes working on the printing press, and then he takes the truck with his books and drives it to the stores, because he want to write a book with one character who is working at a printing press and one who is a truck driver and he's doing research into those roles.And while he's driving, he dictates another book, too.

natc Posted February 2, 2016 Posted February 2, 2016 Brandon Sanderson's #1 fan is the elusive individual called the God Beyond. 1
Stormgate he/him Posted February 3, 2016 Posted February 3, 2016 Sanderson once wrote a series where the end of the book could be guessed by epigraphs. He got away with it. 1
thegatorgirl00 she/her Posted February 3, 2016 Posted February 3, 2016 Brandon Sanderson's #1 fan is the elusive individual called the God Beyond. I'm confused. How can Brandon's biggest fan be himself? 5
Oversleep Posted February 3, 2016 Posted February 3, 2016 I'm confused. How can Brandon's biggest fan be himself? Simple. Wibbly wobbly realmatical investiture stuff. 6
Slater he/him Posted February 3, 2016 Posted February 3, 2016 I'm confused. How can Brandon's biggest fan be himself? Game recognizes game. Brandon just looks in the mirror and nods to himself, the only worthy equal. 2
Stormgate he/him Posted February 3, 2016 Posted February 3, 2016 Sanderson once came up for a major piece of worldbuilding while driving a car on a foggy day. 3
Baine he/him Posted February 4, 2016 Posted February 4, 2016 Sanderson once saved us all from the Evil Librarians as a kid, changed his name, and wrote his autobiography years later. 1
natc Posted February 4, 2016 Posted February 4, 2016 I'm confused. How can Brandon's biggest fan be himself? He made an in-world avatar called the God Beyond to give people something to look at while dealing with him because his true self will melt the brains of cosmere denizens in their attempts to comprehend him. However that avatar was too well made and possessed too much of Brandon's image, and thus became self-aware. He still does what Brandon says, however, out of reverence.
Alfa he/him Posted February 5, 2016 Posted February 5, 2016 Brandon Sanderson has WAFO cards. For himself only. WAFO means "write and find out",btw. 8
Pinnacle-Ferring he/him Posted February 24, 2016 Posted February 24, 2016 Brandon Sanderson once tried to write a bad book just for fun. He failed. 8
Sunbird she/her Posted February 24, 2016 Posted February 24, 2016 Brandon has so many story ideas he has to use a Pensieve to store them all. 1
Oversleep Posted February 24, 2016 Posted February 24, 2016 Brandon has so many story ideas he has to use a Pensieve to store them all. *Copperminds. He has gone great lengths to incorporate them into his books, so we at least could use correct terminology. I wonder who else Brandon spiked for writing speed apart from Rothfuss and Martin?
Alfa he/him Posted February 24, 2016 Posted February 24, 2016 Paolini (the guy who wrote Eragon) was relatively slow...
aeromancer he/him Posted February 24, 2016 Posted February 24, 2016 Brandon Sanderson, out of loving care to people who buy his books, makes them too thick to fit through the return slot when they accidentally include them in their library stack. True story. Almost lost my copy of WoR. 3
Left he/him Posted February 25, 2016 Posted February 25, 2016 He once released three books in a epic fantasy series all in less than six months. 1
king of nowhere Posted February 25, 2016 Posted February 25, 2016 I wonder who else Brandon spiked for writing speed apart from Rothfuss and Martin? Blasphemy! Brandon got good on his own, he didn't steal nobody's skill. The reason those other writers are so slow is that they spend most of their writing time daydreaming on how they wish they were brandon sanderson. Brandon can devise a story so long it cannot be written, and then he can write it anyway.
thegatorgirl00 she/her Posted February 25, 2016 Posted February 25, 2016 Brandon Sanderson once tried to write a bad book just for fun.Brandon decided that the easiest way to write a bad book would be to write something with no plot or characters. When he finished writing it, he titled it the Ars Arcanum. 5
