When previously mentioned friend brings his copy of tWoK to school, (a beautiful, pristine paperback) and you ask if you can smell it, but end up just reading random pages and deflecting questions about the heralds and voidbringers.

Ah, a fellow person of culture I see.

You know you’re a Sandersfan when you stay up late into the night finishing the Dark Talent (curse you Alcatraz, I needed sleep) and the next day proceed to buy color tinted glasses, so you can also be an Oculator.

YKYASF when you use the word 'deevy' 

Yes, I love this word!

I had a dream that I found a stick that was actually the key to my neighbor's door...?

[+Ed Venture]

When someone mentions lashings and you react way too joyfully.

When you use the Alcatraz book you get at a family Christmas party to spark a Sanderson conversation. (I think I got a new convert, woo!)

My uncle is now reading SA, and about a tenth of the way into OB, because me and my younger brother recommended it so highly.

I'm still in shock from the realease party. There were sooooo many Sanderfans!!!! It was beautiful. (there were about 1500 of us there.) It was kinda funny though because while waitning in line we would just jump into conversation with random people. 

Sounts a lot like the Oathbringer release party, which was beyond awesome. If I wasn't coming all the way from Ohio, I would have been there for Starsight - - I'm saving my pennies (& vacation days) for the release of Rhythm of War.

One of the best things about the OB release was how, every time you were around people, everyone was SOOOOO conscientious re: spoilers. They would ask people closeby who they weren't even talking to, "Have you read ____?" and if the person said No, they'd ensure that nothing was leaked. Sanerfans are the BEST when it comes to wanting others to have the same enjoyment each of us had in reading something for the first time!

[Shallan&Pattern she/her]

I wish I had been there! I really hope I can make it to the Rythym of War  release party. Eek. Being my age I don't have controll over that  

[Destruction he/him]

When you are so excited that there is a release date for Stormlight 4 that you don't do any of the homework you're supposed to do.

When you use scud in a variety of classes and when people actually knew what I was talking about I was very excited.

[Reckless Reader]

When you don't do any of your homework because you're too busy binding (another) printed version of White Sand.

(I changed up the colors, so it's more Darkside-y compared to the first one, which was Dayside-y)

(And I also just fixed some stuff that bugged me about my first attempt)

(I also added some bits n bobs that were totally unnecessary but I love them)

(as you can see, I just love experimenting with bookbinding)

(Am I going to make little notebooks for my entire family for Christmas? Yes. I am.)

[Fezzik]

One Ookla to print White Sands,

and in the darkness bind them.

I hope you can come!! FYI, there were a LOT of young people at the Oathbringer release party, so if you're trying to convince your folks about it, you can use that as leverage. Brandon's children were there - really family friendly, but with epic fantasy! Srsly, it was such a positive, friendly experience - it would have surprised me, except I know how awesome we Sander-fans are!

When someone compliments your Doomslug shirt and you resist the urge to scream in joy that SOMEONE FINALLY GETS THE REFERENCE!

[Ghanderflaffle she/her]

Someone was interested in Women's Script yesterday and asked me to teach them. I’m working on making a new nerd!

[Tesh Any pronouns]

When your friend asks you questions about tWoK and you can't respond because of spoliers, you respond with RAFO. 

(He's also been talking a lot about Szeth's baldness).

When your replace the fonts on your computer with the steel alphabet, and with the woman’s script, and still don’t understand it.

When you see a sanderfan with a a doomslug shirt and you get the reference

When you have an excuse to be on the 17S or coppermind because you're researching for a book report you have to do.

Would you mind sending these to me too? I would also like to know how to add these. I do have a chromebook, but I don't know how to add fonts to it.
