Alloy Me To Introduce Myself

[KalsBoots]

I have creeped on these pages for years. Usually trying to find out information about Hoid. But I finally decided to join after actually listening to a podcast - first time I've done that. And I don't mean it's the first time I've listened to the 17th shard podcast I mean a podcast at all. It was the podcast after Oathbringer came out. And honestly you guys just sound like a good group of friends that enjoy Brandon Sanderson's works. And that appeals to me, in fact I just got my wife to start listening to the WoK! Which actually brings me to my next point, as much as I love reading I have actually never read a Brandon Sanderson book, I listen to audiobooks. This is particularly convenient for me because I drive a lot for work. And like most of you I did get started reading Brandon Sanderson books because he finished off WoT. But this week I stopped in at Barnes and Noble and I bought the storm light books, to actually read! Though I will always hear Dalinar in my head with the amazing voice of Michael Kramer. 

A bit about me? Why, sure! So glad you asked!

I am 29, Married, 3 kids, 2 cats (who are insufferable jerks), 1 dog (who is a good girl), and a love of SFF books. Though you may not think it to look at me. (Think former built badass, but now dangerously close to dadbod, jeans, boots, slight southern accent, truck)  

So I guess you could say in my typical circle of people... I don't really get to talk about things like this. Which is why am excited to say...

Hello 17th!

(and yes I may have a Pun/dadjoke as a thread title)

[MacThorstenson he/him]

Welcome to the 17th shard!! Take an upvote and a cookie as a welcoming gift!! Tell me which of Brandon's works have you read/listened to?

[KalsBoots]

Pretty much everything but the Rithmatis (next on my list), Legion, Alcatraz, and his short stories not included in Arcanum unbound.

[Pines she/her]

Oh goodness, now there's a pun...and a pretty good one too!! 

Welcome! I'm like you too where I only just recently climbed down from the lurker tree on here too!

Welcome, as part of an initiation could you repeat, "My life to yours, my Breath to yours"?

Nice try!

Yall are a crafty bunch. 

[+ElephantEarwax he/him]

I take that as a point.

[KalsBoots]

I don't know if you take it as a point, perhaps it just put you on the same level as Berlin. Welcome to top gun.

wait... are we allowed to make non-Brandon Sanderson references here? I'm pretty sure that's a great top gun reference. #TakeMyBreathAway

I take that as a point. you quoted the saying.
