Comby23 he/him Posted May 17, 2017 Report Share Posted May 17, 2017 Hey All! I go by Comby and have (finally - after much lurking!) decided to create an account so I can interact with the wonderful Sanderfans A big push for me to create an account was the fact that Brandon is actually coming to Australia very soon! I am really excited that I may have the chance to meet the man who raised the bar for fantasy writing in my eyes. Plus... you kinda need an account to interact, so if I'm going to meet Brandon and maybe ask some questions, then it helps to have an account to share anything I gain from that opportunity. Anyway, I look forward to joining in some of the awesome discussions you guys have! Comby 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Comby23 he/him Posted May 17, 2017 Author Report Share Posted May 17, 2017 @Delightfully Smoak He is making appearances at Supanova in Sydney and Perth in June. http://www.supanova.com.au/guests/brandon-sanderson/ that is his guest page. There's not set event schedule yet (*cue irritated sigh*), but he is doing general admin Q&A's, plus signings and photos, both Saturday and Sunday. I plan on going to Sydney 'cause, likely, it'll be my one chance to see him amongst a long, long time. I've learnt to be wary of these hemalurgically-infused baked goods... The notion that their being passed around in baked goods makes me wonder if coeliac's are more susceptible to hemalurgy though. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+Extesian he/him Posted May 17, 2017 Report Share Posted May 17, 2017 Welcome Cobber. We need more of us from Earth's Sinovar (or Shattered Pains, depending on your perspective) I'm hoping to make it to Sydney for him as well! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Delightful Posted May 17, 2017 Report Share Posted May 17, 2017 Tagging @Darkness Ascendant Cause he'll be interested too. So well, damnation. I'm going back to Aus for a visit soon but I'm gonna miss him. Someone please ask what its like for him being a male writer in the industry. Squeeing aside, welcome Comby! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, I'm hoping to go as well, but like, parents and things @Delightfully Smoak *shrugs Probably won't be allowed ha *grumbles But if I do, I'll probs be cosplaying as either Kaladin or as some obscure comic book character ahahaa, I've been trying to keep planning to a minimum to avoid disappointment, but I guess I might as well compile my questions and things for Brandon... If it is confirmed I'm going I'll let you know, might meet or something *shugs. Btw recording isn't allowed Comby, so if you do record, do so discreetly ha I'll make a google doc for the questions and throw them in the signing thread, which can be found here 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Comby23 he/him Posted May 18, 2017 Author Report Share Posted May 18, 2017 @Darkness Ascendant hey! I'm in country NSW, Wagga Wagga, so I'll trek up to see him over the weekend. I'd love to meet some other fans of Sanderson... I'm slowly influencing my fellow readers into the Cosmere and thankfully they are falling in love with it. Awesome! I'm already thinking of questions to ask too! If I pick up anything he says that you may have missed I will definitely pass it on to you! Or anything he writes as part of a book signing I'll take a pic of it and post it on here! @King Cole he is appearing at Supanova. The Sydney event is Friday June 16th to Sunday June 18th but on his guest page he's only appearing Saturday and Sunday. Brandon is also going to Perth and the dates for Perth are Friday June 23rd to Sunday June 25th. Pretty exciting. The last time he came was 2012 I think (I could be wrong!). I had only just tried Mistborn then. Now being a Cosmere addict, I can't wait to meet him! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
