Really looking forward to posting here and getting to know everyone Hi there, Riah! I'm bleeder, or Cam. I'm from Tennessee, that's in (*sigh*) America. I like music and stuff. Welcome to our community! It's lovely to meet you. You'll learn a lot and make new friends. Just, as Budge said, don't eat the cookies. If you ever need anything, feel free to give me a shout! See you around! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PlanetReelo she/her Posted December 23, 2016 Author Report Share Posted December 23, 2016 Lovely to meet you both, Budgie and Cam! I wish I had known about this board sooner. I don't think BS is quite as well known here as he is in the States, so it's been a bit sad not being about to share the love with other people. But alas, I have found you all now, so I'm looking forward to posting a lot As for me, I enjoy anime, gaming and reading of course! Also guys, what's this 'stay away from cookies' business? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've read the first two books, but admittedly back in high school so I don't remember the finer details I'm afraid! But they're on my list for a reread as I wait for Oathbringer. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

soyperson Posted December 24, 2016 Report Share Posted December 24, 2016 He's not well known in Tennessee, to my knowledge. He's kind of an obscure author in general. I know one person in my town who is as into him as I am, and she is an employee at Books-A-Million (she does have a Syl tattoo, which is, in truth, pretty awesome). (For reference, I am in high school.) 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PlanetReelo she/her Posted December 24, 2016 Author Report Share Posted December 24, 2016 Wow, a Syl tattoo sounds incredible! Has BS ever come to Tennessee? Getting something signed by him would be absolutely incredible I think he mentioned in one of his posts that he may tour to the UK in 2017. Haha well I guess that makes me your senpai (japanese anime reference there!). I'm in my final year of med school now, which brings me to the grand old age of 23! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guess I'm a little late getting to this, but that's what I get for living in Utah during ski season... Have an upvote! I am in high school, but hey, the Shard is where age doesn't necessarily matter I've been to London, and can I just say, you have some really beautiful architecture. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A Budgie she/her Posted December 24, 2016 Report Share Posted December 24, 2016 Since everyone else has mentioned it, I suppose I'd better mention that I'm also in high school. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bugsy he/him Posted December 25, 2016 Report Share Posted December 25, 2016 Highschool club ftw! In all seriousness, welcome to the forums! Have an upvote I, sadly, can confirm that Sanderson is equally obscure here in Michigan. I know 8 people who have read cosmere, but they've all been recruited by me (He seems to be most popular in Utah) If you like, I can try to find the online copies of Warbreaker and Emperor's Soul for you, since they're both available for free. If possible, though, I'd suggest buying them; wouldn't want to cheat Brandon of his hard-earned royalties Oh, and if you need anything, let me know 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've read the Emperor's Soul (loved it!) and would love to read Warbreaker but I think I'll buy it as I have a few Audibility credits rattling around Hope to see you around the board! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Assassin in Burgundy he/him Posted December 30, 2016 Report Share Posted December 30, 2016 I'm probably the only middle-schooler on this site, on account of finishing WoK in fourth grade. What books of BS have you read, and do you know about the Cosmere? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So far I've read the first two mistborn books, both SA books, Emporer's soul and Legion. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Elenion he/him Posted December 31, 2016 Report Share Posted December 31, 2016 Another high-schooler from Utah reporting in. Here Sanderson is not exactly popular, but you can expect about 1 in 20 to have read one of his books. If he ever gets really big, I can say that I read him before it was cool. And although you've heard it before, do not eat the cookies, or at least put them through a metal detector first. You never know what the Dark Alley has baked in. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And that's pretty similar to what I tell my friends! 'When SA becomes the next big thing and gets 6 movies, remember that I was raving about it long before!' See you around the board! I can make no promises about those cookies! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, along with a couple other short stories. It has something to do with 90% of the theories on this site, and so it's pretty important to know about. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
