Hey!

[Fanderson he/him]

Hey! I'm new to this forum, though I've been reading on it for a little while.

My name is Herman Fassett and Brandon Sanderson is my favorite author. Sorry for my cheesy username...

My favorite book of his is Words of Radiance. I like all of his other books too (I've read almost all of them), but the Stormlight Archive, most especially Words of Radiance, is just amazing.

I've always wanted to create fan art. But I'm terrible at drawing. I can however sort of write music, so you may see some songs from me in the Creator's Corner soon. Actually, I'm working on one right now that follows Shallan's life We'll see how it turns out.

Anyway, glad to join finally, and I know I'll have a good time.

Welcome to the 17th Shard!  And I think your username is awesome.    I'm honestly kind of surprised it wasn't taken yet...

Welcome to the 17th Shard!
Would you care for a welcome cookie?

[Fanderson he/him]

Mmm... Is it good? I've heard of cookies with large metal content going around. I'd prefer chocolate please.

Ah, fresh meat. This is good, it always pleases me when we get more potential upvoters for my 5-hour long recordings of Brandon's Chicago signings. Good indeed.

I love your username!

Thanks for all the awesome replies! I have one quick question for y'all. I've finally finished as far as I'll be able to a 7 minute orchestral piece which basically follows Shallan Davar's life story that we know of at this point. I'm actually well pleased with how it came out and can't wait to share it with y'all in the Creative Corner. However, I'm going to upload it to YT and I want to have some cool fan artwork for it, but I'm not sure what artwork to use. Any suggestions?

[Fanderson he/him]

Try the Gallery tab. It has some cool stuff in it.

Thanks, I'll check it out. Maybe if I don't procrastinate I'll have something absolutely wonderful for you to listen to.

Mmm... Lies.

What instrument do you compose for? 

[Fanderson he/him]

What instrument do you compose for? 

Well, this composition is played by sounds on my computer, so it could be said a computer. However, it's meant to sound like an orchestra and I've written a short symphony which was performed by an orchestra, so I think I can say I'm composing for all the instruments in the orchestra. I've also written a few string quartets. As far as good composing goes, I'm probably the best with strings as almost my whole (did I mention large) family plays a string instrument or piano. I myself play the Viola.

Thanks again for this, I found some awesome artwork. I want to be all proper and stuff, so I've asked for permission to use certain artwork in my music vid, so if I get any replies, I'll share something with you all then. In the meantime, I'll fix a few things in the piece that I've noticed...

Well, thank you all, I've finally got it done. http://www.17thshard.com/forum/topic/24109-brightness-davar-fan-song/
