kroen Posted June 15, 2015 Report Share Posted June 15, 2015 For example, there can be a book that's comprised of a collection of all Brandon's short stories. Maybe even all of Alcatraz books in another volume (they're short enough that I believe it's possible). Also, I've seen some of Brandon's lectures on writing and read his 3 magic laws, and I think it'll be awesome if they'll be collected into a book to help people write. What do you think? 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Curious Anamaximder Posted June 15, 2015 Report Share Posted June 15, 2015 That would be cool. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jeremy Posted June 15, 2015 Report Share Posted June 15, 2015 I don't have specific quotes/references for this, but here's some info: Brandon has at least thought about releasing a short story collection at some point in the future. He has said that if and when he does that, he would like to include at least one story brand new to the anthology. There's also a couple "convention exclusives" that feature two short stories in one volume. Firstborn and Defending Elysium are available now on his website, and Shadows for Silence in the Forests of Hell and Perfect State are bundled as another book. This one is still currently a convention exclusive, but there should be copies up on his website once convention season is over. Alcatraz has the first four books published in a single anthology edition, published in the UK. If you're interested, you might be able to track one down online somewhere, but I believe that he also plans to release a second anthology with all five books in it, sometime after the fifth book is actually published. You might also be interested in Shadows Beneath, a collection put together with the Writing Excuses podcast team, that has 4 short stories, and includes early drafts, notes, brainstorming sessions, etc. that help you see the process of four different writers for creating a short story. This is also available on his website. Not exactly what you were asking about, but it's as close as you can get at the moment. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zas678 Posted June 15, 2015 Report Share Posted June 15, 2015 I'm holding out for the Stormlight Archive single volume anthology. Sure, they'll just have these guys print it out. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kroen Posted June 16, 2015 Author Report Share Posted June 16, 2015 Sure, they'll just have these guys print it out. Actually the book in the picture is 5000 pages, while all of the 10 Stormlight Archives books would be well over 10,000 pages. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
