Fallible Posted January 25, 2013 Report Share Posted January 25, 2013 I think that's the first time I read a Terms and Conditions in its entirety, and the first time I've laughed while reading one. Would someone let me know what day next week my soul is supposed to be sold? And a bagel? I think my soul is worth at least a Krispy Kreme donut! Hello, 17th Shard! I've been a fan of Brandon's since I heard he was finishing WoT. I thought, They're picking a guy who's name I hadn't even heard of, to finish Wheel of Time?! So I promptly picked up Mistborn, very nervous as I started reading. By the end of it I was very confident Brandon would do right by the series, and as I learned more and more about him, I knew he could be the only author to finish it. And he hasn't disappointed on that front. On top of his WoT books, the Mistborn Trilogy + Allow of Law, I've only read WoK. Elantris and Warbreaker are next on the list. Now a little about myself. I'm 24, real names Aaron, and currently reside just south of Louisville, KY. I was extremely upset I couldn't get off work to attend Brandon's signing in Lexington! I'm biding my time here, working as much as I can as I head off to University in Wales come September. I believe Brandon is planning on touring in the UK in November, so I hope to finally meet him over there when he does. Well, I'm looking forward to becoming a part of this community. I was a lurker on Dragonmount for years (can't remember if I even posted once). They were too argumentative for me. Everyone here seems extremely laid back and just plain nice. Despite to spikes slammed into eyes thing. :)/> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rubix he/him Posted January 25, 2013 Report Share Posted January 25, 2013 Welcome Aaron! As for what day, I haven't entirely decided. Depends on which day you bring me my bagel/krispy kreme. :P/> In all seriousness, welcome to the site! I hope you enjoy it here! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hey there Aaron, great to have you aboard , there's quite a few of us Sharders over here in the UK now, might want to organise some form of get-together at one of the signings Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fallible Posted January 26, 2013 Author Report Share Posted January 26, 2013 Thanks for the welcome guys! Welcome Aaron! As for what day, I haven't entirely decided.

When I can tell myself I won't feel guilty about it I'll pick myself up some chocolate covered custard filled goodness! Hey there Aaron, great to have you aboard :D/>/>, there's quite a few of us Sharders over here in the UK now, might want to organise some form of get-together at one of the signings :D/>/> Sharders? Is that the official name of Brandon fans? I like it! And I would love to be a part of a get together like that. I'll be attending Aberystwyth Uni. Did he stop in Wales at all last time he toured over there? Cardiff or Swansea? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joe ST he/him Posted January 26, 2013 Report Share Posted January 26, 2013 There's no official title for us Brandonites, but there's a variety of different collectives It depends on where he gets to, he might pass through Cardiff, we just don't know yet. *not much use* XD Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rubix he/him Posted January 27, 2013 Report Share Posted January 27, 2013 Specifically, 'Sharder' is the term that Brandon uses to refer to fans who are members of this wonderful site. Other people I've heard as either "BranderFans" or "SanderFans". But we get the cool one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LessThanGeorge Posted January 27, 2013 Report Share Posted January 27, 2013 Heyo Aaron. I'm new here too. Weren't you impressed with the way Brandon finished WoT? Not perfect, of course, but I think he pretty much nailed Rand and Egwene's arcs in The Gathering Storm. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fallible Posted January 27, 2013 Author Report Share Posted January 27, 2013 @Rubix Yeah, Sharder is frakkin' awesome. Glad to be one! Heyo Aaron. I'm new here too. Weren't you impressed with the way Brandon finished WoT? Not perfect, of course, but I think he pretty much nailed Rand and Egwene's arcs in The Gathering Storm. What's up, George? Even though I'm new also, welcome! I was most certainly impressed with his handling of Egewene and Rand. Yet, he did the best with Perrin's voice (who, tied with Egwene, is my favorite character from the Two Rivers folk). That one he nailed. I don't want to say much more than that as I don't want to spoil anything if you've only finished TGS. If you're further than that I'd be happy to discuss it in the WOT section. See ya around!
