DSC01 he/him Posted December 3, 2016 Posted December 3, 2016 (edited) Recently, I've been thinking about what questions I would ask if I could interview Brandon Sanderson in a context where I could assume that the intended audience is fully informed about the Cosmere--an interview just for Sharders. I'm not talking about a personal Q&A session--say, throwing out some pet theories, pulling a few choice questions from The Ultimate List, and collecting a handful of RAFO cards. I'm talking about a real interview, just one where the interviewer just happens to know all about the author's work (and is asking questions for an audience that does as well). What would you guys ask? How would you approach an interview that isn't "for the n00bs" at all? Ideally, this wouldn't yield any RAFOs (or maybe just one--on a convoluted, just-for-the-big-fans question at the very end of the interview--but, otherwise, none). I'm talking about an interview that skirts the very edge of what we know (and can know) right now, without ever crossing over into RAFO territory--an interview that respects the author, as an artist, as much as it respects the eager audience and the visceral excitement that they feel in reading about the actual diegesis of the tale. I put this thread on this board because, despite it not being an actual Cosmere theory, I fully expect you guys to be overflowing with amazing questions that are so full of spoilers that they can only be posted in Cosmere Theories. So gimme some questions, y'all! Even if it is all academic! Edited December 3, 2016 by DSC01
