You Know You're a Sanderfan When...

[Jude he/him]

When you cant play a board game with metal in it without thinking of mistborn and the allamantic metals.

And then you think you see something in the middle of the night and you say: Oh my Harmony! Look, it's a Mistborn! Rust and Ruin! Mom, I found a Mistborn!

Greetings from Scadrial!

So... my sister is taking an American Lit class and needed to stop at the library to find a book. I asked her what the criteria were, and apparently it's just "the author has to have been born in America" or something like that. So of course I suggest Sanderson. She gets that a lot, though, and wasn't affected.

It was only after we went into the library and she couldn't find the Louis L'Amour book she wanted (aside: HOW?! THeRE aRe LiKE a mILlioN) that she asked me if I would buy her a Twix bar if she read Mistborn. I told her absolutely. We went to the store and I got her a fancy yogurt instead but she still had a treat. She is now reading Mistborn for a school project. I did tell her how distinctive the setting and plot and characters and other symbols were, though, and how easy an artistic project could be. 

 I love my sister. She is willing to give up hundreds of hours of her time for a little Twix.

She'll like Mistborn so much, that she will end up giving you a Twix instead

My old 8th grade english teacher (who has taught three of my siblings so far, so we have an excellent relationship) was looking for a dystopian novel to study in her class. She wanted to read Hunger Games, but my mom had a huge problem with the amount of violence in that book. So she tried to get her to read Mistborn instead. My old teacher didn't go for it . But hey, we tried. Good thing you succeeded on this one! 

On that note, you know you're a Sanderfan when you've got your mom and no less than five siblings reading the guy's books, not to mention an uncle or two (JK the uncle was the one who introduced me in the first place).

I know I'm a Sanderfan when I feel inadequate because I've only managed to convince two people to start reading Sanderson: my mom (just the Legion novellas and Reckoners so far, though she hasn't finished Calamity yet), and a nice lady who used to be my neighbor when I lived in Ohio (I got her to buy a copy of Steelheart like a year or more ago, but I don't know if she's even finished reading it).

Rejoice, I haven't converted anyone 

 

You know you're a Sanderfan when you sleep at 3:00 AM because you were checking Coppermind

Or when there's a question about metaphors on a final. They gave a little example, and I answered the true/false question, then wrote off to the side:

"That's a simile. David thinks he's bad at metaphors but he's actually bad at similes. Ex: "it was like one lumberjack had eaten a lumberjack to make one very big lumberjack".*"

I cited the Reckoners series at the asterisk.

When you realize 17th Shard is cancer.

...

Wait! Hold your tomatoes! Let me explain! 17th Shard leads to the uncontrollable multiplication of tabs, when browsing different theories. Hence, it is cancer.

You know you're a Sanderfan when you quote one of Brandon's books in your Language Arts exam. 

True Story

[Jude he/him]

When you refer the grand canyon as the shadard plains, and your family is so confused

[+Slowswift]

When you dream of a Kelsier-esque revolution, starring your cousin as everyone's favorite psychopath.  

[KnightRadiant she/her]

When you make it a personal goal to get your friend to join the Shard.

Which character did you have in mind as the psychopath? Zane? Straff Venture?

When you want to argue that Zane was a sociopath and not a psychopath....

LOL. I would say that's a sign of being a Dan Wells or John Cleaver fan.
