Argent he/him Posted September 17, 2018 Posted September 17, 2018 Tor has announced the full Skyward tour, use this topic to sign up for and discuss the El Cerrito stop: Quote Thursday, November 8 at 7:00 PMBarnes & Noble – El Cerrito (#2113)Talk, Q&A, Book Signing6050 El Cerrito Plaza El Cerrito, CA 94530
Chaos he/him Posted September 17, 2018 Posted September 17, 2018 I think I'll be able to take time off work to make it there by 7 to record things for this event, so I'd like to go, but we'll see.
Fully_Invested Posted November 7, 2018 Posted November 7, 2018 @Chaos after hearing hundreds of hours of your voice on the podcast, I hope you're able to make it! Would love to meet. Q for you (both): How many Qs does Brandon usually entertain in the 1-1 setting? I have a rather long list... :-D Or does it really just depend on the hour and his stamina at the time?

I have a rather long list... :-D Or does it really just depend on the hour and his stamina at the time? That entirely depends on which setting. In the signing line I would not expect to ever get more than two. That's kind of pushing it even. PM me here or on Discord and let's exchange contact info so we meet up! I should be there about 6pm. I'm driving from Monterey and it takes a while.
Ruin's Scariest Koloss Posted November 8, 2018 Posted November 8, 2018 I'm coming up from Monterey as well!
Fully_Invested Posted November 8, 2018 Posted November 8, 2018 Such a long drive, hat's off to you two! I'm in the Peninsula and many of my Sanderson-fan-friends are passing because it's in East Bay. Oh well! I'm hoping the crowd tonight isn't as huge as last year's Oathbringer signing. Looking forward to seeing you there!
Ruin's Scariest Koloss Posted November 8, 2018 Posted November 8, 2018 @Fully_Invested Hey, it's about as close as Brandon will ever get to me, so I feel like the drive is worth it!
Fully_Invested Posted November 8, 2018 Posted November 8, 2018 @Ruin's Scariest Koloss Cool! Let me know if you'd like to meet up - I think I'll grab dinner at the Chipotle across the street ~6 PM.

MrFancy Posted November 9, 2018 Posted November 9, 2018 I'll be at the signing as well, in fact I just made it to the Barnes and Noble a couple minutes ago. It would be great to meet anybody who's here waiting too.
Fully_Invested Posted November 9, 2018 Posted November 9, 2018 Traffic is awful, so no dinner beforehand fo me

Argent he/him Posted November 10, 2018 Author Posted November 10, 2018 Anyone eager to transcribe (or keep an eye on the transcriptions as they come up), you can do so here: https://wob.coppermind.net/events/369-skyward-bay-area-signing/
Fully_Invested Posted November 12, 2018 Posted November 12, 2018 @ArgentI started to do this but then noticed, when I stepped in to edit @Chaos's snippets that he'd already transcribed some - but they're not appearing in the Entries list yet. This is my first time offering to help - can you give some orientation on how this process works? Thanks!

This is my first time offering to help - can you give some orientation on how this process works? Thanks! If you see something with a white button on the edit page, but no visible entry, it means that someone has transcribed it already, but an Arcanist hasn't been able to check over and approve it. So you can feel free to find something with a red button and start transcribing that one.
Stark he/him Posted November 13, 2018 Posted November 13, 2018 Thanks to whoever asked about the missing blades. I itch to pull that thread and ask questions in that vein. I'm just never near a signing to go ask in person, and find out about reddit events after they are over. So thanks, I have a lot of questions on that vein, and you getting confirmation that they are still out there helps!
Fully_Invested Posted November 13, 2018 Posted November 13, 2018 @Stark that was me! The question came to me just last week as I was listening to the Sharcast episode on the Missing Shardblades. In all of the outcomes the group hypothesized, they all included the assumption that all of the abandoned blades actually stayed in the Physical Realm as blades. My thought was perhaps only a portion of the abandoned spren were stuck as blades while others fully died/disappeared. Brandon confirmed their assumption - all of the spren were stuck as blades.
Stark he/him Posted November 13, 2018 Posted November 13, 2018 @Fully_Invested Thanks again! I have not had a chance to listen to the podcast in full. I have figured that some were lost - in the sea, buried in crem, etc, but others were very much not lost, and have been speculating as to where they are. I've been wanting to ask questions in this vein for a while, and your question is confirmation that I needed. If ever I get a chance to go to a signing, I have one less in my list. So thanks for helping the theories along, and a particular thanks for mine.
