Knight of Iron Posted December 11, 2020 Report Share Posted December 11, 2020 Alright, I know this’ll sound a little out there for this thread, but you will most likely know you’re a Sanderson fan when you sincerely enjoy reading Brandon Sanderson’s books and look forward to more. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tesh Posted December 11, 2020 Report Share Posted December 11, 2020 When you get some new pins and think they are the most beautiful pins you own. (I have quite the collection (including a suit of armor pin), so this is worth noting. The Sanderson pins beat the suit of armor.) Spoiler Note- I have somewhat small hands. I'm about as tall as Shallan, so... I was really impressed by how awesome they looked. A little pricey, but completely worth it. They are super nice for being so small (which I also really like). Did I mention how awesome they look? (I am afraid to lose them, though...) When you compare your height to that of Shallan. 9 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's just those Alethi that are freakishly tall... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aspiring Writer Posted December 12, 2020 Report Share Posted December 12, 2020 When your reading his books (RoW in particular) and you keep on going 'I understood that reference! I know what that connects to! I know why it works that way!" as Captain America in the helacarrier every ten pages.

Spoiler The encounter was a little weird, but, I mean, it was me, so of course it was awkward because people. But hopefully, by the time winter break is over, he'll have finished either Mistborn or The Way of Kings.

Chinkoln Posted December 12, 2020 Report Share Posted December 12, 2020 YKYASFW you have the acronym memorized YKYASFW when your brother, who recently read Elantris and is starting Mistborn comes up to you with a question. He says the Coppermind didn’t answer his question, but my feverish obsession with all things Sanderson probably led me to the answer a long time ago. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Use the Falchion Posted December 13, 2020 Report Share Posted December 13, 2020 (edited) When you have a dream about someone clearly from the future leaving Stormlight Book 5 behind,* you only getting to the artwork and then deciding to give it to Brandon so that he can release it Winter 2021 and spend his time writing other books...and then you wake up and wonder about what Sanderson would actually do in this scenario. (I think Sanderson would probably give the book to Peter or someone to see if it matches up with his outline, write out the first draft, and only then look and see if it's the same. If it is, then he'd probably use the future version to fast-track revisions and speed up the release time. All of that said, I'd LOVE it if he believed it was from the future, released the book early, and used the year and a half Stormlight requires moving ahead on Mistborn Era 3.**) *It was only clear in retrospect. At the time, it was just a beta or gamma copy that a beta/gamma reader had left behind (that had the artwork and everything weirdly enough). Brandon clearly knew whose it was, and even signed it, but obviously hadn't written the book yet. **Although if I was Brandon, I'd probably use that time to write out [EDIT] Rithmatist 2, polish The Apocalypse Guard, and write out that YA Cosmere Kite-based magic system. I DO believe he'll do those first two in the back-half of 2023 while revising his Era 3 outline, but having a year to do that earlier...yes please!
