NyxRo she/her Posted June 5, 2019 Posted June 5, 2019 Hi everyone, "Hands all red" was what Brandon Sanderson signed in my Shadows of Self copy. I'm so happy I got to meet him--I just can't believe that was years ago. My first Sanderson book was Mistborn: The Final Empire, and I read the series over 5 years ago...I think. I am re-reading the 1st era books now so that I can finish the 2nd era. My favorite book, however, has to be the Way of Kings. I love love love Kaladin and Sylphrena. I love this site!! I was searching for anything related to Kelsier and found a poll of favorite and least favorite crewmember (I chose Kelsier for my favorite of course). I can't wait to explore more of it. Thanks! 1
+Ark1002 Posted June 6, 2019 Posted June 6, 2019 Welcome! I highly recommend you check out the roleplay forum. If you're interested, I have some recommendations for RPs and guilds.
NyxRo she/her Posted June 6, 2019 Author Posted June 6, 2019 Thank you! I was going through the RP forum and was happy to just explore it. I have never done any RPing before. Which do you recommend?
Weltall Posted June 6, 2019 Posted June 6, 2019 Welcome to the Shard and hope you enjoy yourself here! Yeah, when you're at a signing Brandon will usually throw in something like that which is meant to represent a key element or moment from the book. Way of Kings had 'Bridge Four' and Edgedancer had 'Are you listening?', for some other examples. It's a cool little touch and if you haven't started reading the book at the time of the signing it also gives you a hint of what you're about to get yourself into. xD

I wish I had "Bridge Four" signed on my Way of Kings copy. But I was just getting into his works at that time so I was too late for The Way of Kings signing. I came across Brandon Sanderson kind of by accident when my friend's husband downloaded a bunch of books onto my kindle. I started reading Mistborn: Hero of Ages first and thought it was really good but didn't know what was going on, thinking it was the first book. I must have spoiled a lot for myself by doing that. I still don't know what "Hands all red" means because I haven't started Shadows of Self yet, despite buying it and having it signed years ago. Thanks! 18 hours ago, Ethan_Sedai said: Welcome!
