I was hoping sixth of dusk but that's unrealistic, i know. And yeah, i did mean parents lol
I've already spent way to much money this year though, so sadly i'm probably gonna scale down to just the ebook/audiobook. That hoid box is calling to me though

Spoiler
Dragonsteel is in the cosmere mainline, though, and I don't think he's ever said there's a chance he won't get to it?
and woof yeah these are expensive. I dunno what I'm gonna be able to afford either.
-
Spoiler
I guess it would depend what "not mainline" means. If it means "not part of the central plot", then yeah, Yolen doesn't qualify. If it means "not one of the main worlds", then Yolen arguably does qualify (its importance for the cosmere *books* is much lower than its importance for the *cosmere*)
He never explicitly said he won't get to it but he did say he planned on writing it "way after 2030".

Wow! I'm pretty much constantly out of rep. I'm on the shard a lot and I think you get your rep points back 24 hours after you use them? So I am always using the 5 rep I have for the next few hours and having to wait to get other ones

I was going to preform at a music festival today with my choir but i woke up with a very unpleasant case of what seems to be tonsillitis
This is the worst ;-; i wanna sing so bad but i probably can't ;-; this literally happened with my last choir performance as well but i was able to make it to that one. Anyway i'm gonna see if i can temporarily recover in the next fourty minutes via tea and hot shower and cough drops so i can make it. Wish me luck guys
(Also that Sanderson article in wired was absolutely atrocious and Sanderson's extremely mature response made me respect him more than i already did.)

I watched an arcane episode and that made me feel better :) and i'm gonna go see my future highschool's production of mean girls the musical in 15 minutes (i'm well enough to see something if i'm sitting down). And if that doesn't cure me i'll come home and listen to Barret Wilber Weed singing Beautiful and then Seventeen from Heathers on a loop which could probably cure any illness.

TICK EVERLASTIIIIIIIING MY LOOOOVE Tick tick boom - love the music, I'd really like to watch it again now that I know the story, I feel like I'd appreciate it more. The first time I watched it I was kinda like "meh this is alright" and then by the end I was like "ohhhh okay that's the point here" so I want to watch it again with the purpose in mind the whole time. Cuz like...I liked it, but I didn't love it and I really want to love it.

Hi guys, I'll be taking a break from here for a while. Idk when I'll come back. I know I have some messages I haven't answered and some stuff I haven't finished, and I'm super sorry about that. But I just need to take a break.
If you have anything important to tell me, you could probably send it through Elf, if she didn't mind.
I will be back eventually, I promise. Love you guys!

i think that it's the first in world Singer/Human relationship.
Sorry, but the Herdazians and Horneaters (and, by extension, the Veden) are all the results of Singer/human interbreeding.
QuoteBrandon Sanderson
Horneaters are capable [of drinking the Horneater White]. They actually are human-singer hybrids, like the Herdazians, but in a different line. And they have a different physiology. And they actually are not 100% human and are capable of eating and ingesting things that would kill a person.
Isaac Stewart
Can singers?
Brandon Sanderson
Yes, singers can drink the Horneater White.
YouTube Livestream 14 (July 30, 2020) -
Hmmmm interesting. A singer/human relationship between two high-up people will still be a huge thing for the current plot though, not to mention a queer one.
Omg every time i think about it i get more and more impatient for Stormlight 5. I cannot believe he pushed the release date to 2024 for fricking Skyward............

My little brother convinced me to play dungeons and dragons with him and my little sister, and I'm pretty sure we aren't playing it right, but it is soo fun. I get to be a gigantic lemon named Semeloi, Bringer of Onions, who can create an ice wall from thin air and is very funny. And my little sisters keeps rolling 20s for dumb stuff like killing a rat, and i keep rolling 1s for really important stuff. And also our stuffed animals get to play. It's great, i highly recommend this particular version of D&D.

Hey guys
So i um
I don't write very much, but when i do, i have been informed that i write good.
(yes, i know the proper grammar is "write well", and thus i am not demonstrating my writing abilities. it's for personality.)
Anyway i kind of wanna share some writing with you guys and also see if a couple story ideas i have sound interesting... specially because A. i need to choose one to work on and B. i need to write more to keep my skillz sharp, and it'd be easier to be consistent if there were people waiting on me to write something. I work mildly better under pressure. Mildly. So... this is sort of gauging interest for a Facepalm Writes thread :D
Anyone interested?

...ok to make this su actually USEFUL, my dad said he would take me to the W&W 4 release party. Like, i was sitting there reading Arcanum Unbounded and scheming on how to get to the con, and my dad comes over and is like "watcha reading?" And i show him the cover and he, completely unprompted, said, "hey, do you wanna meet him [Brandon Sanderson]?" And i just sit there, completely surprised. And then i told him about the con and he was literally like, "great! Lets buy tickets!" Which, if you know my dad (you obviously don't lol), is the most unlike him thing. And we haven't bought tickets yet (cause, ya know, you can't buy tickets yet) but BROOOOOOOOOOOOOOO I AM SO HECCIN EXCITED
Man i spend to much time on here

Hi guys
Something completely awesome happened on monday, which was that I GOT TO MEET MY FAVORITE AUTHOR!!! IT WAS MAGGIE STEIFVATER--
*click*
Uhhmm
*cough*
SECOND favorite author haha sorry that was a typo lol (Hoid, Dallen, and a parrot definitely aren't holding a gun to my head right now lololol send help haha sorry typo again) obviously my first favorite is our king and ruler Brando Sando who's fan website i am posting on lololol
Anyway it was Maggie Steifvater doing a book tour for Greywaren and when i tell you it was one of the favorite experiences of my lifetime so far, belive it. Have you ever met someone (famous/well-known or otherwise) who you thought were just the most amazing person ever and then you meet them and they're actually kind of annoying or not as nearly cool as your expectations?
That is the absolute exact opposite of what happened. Maggie Steifvater is literally the coolest person i have ever met. She gave a thirty-fourty minute talk before the signing and it was absolutely hilarious and also riveting and interesting and gave so many interesting facts about her books. And she was simultaneously exactly how i expected but also better, she talked about cars and music (any steifvater fan knows she's a car person lol). And when she was signing my books, she looked at my name AND SHE PRONOUNCED IT CORRECTLY!!! NO ONE EVER DOES THAT!!!! It's not even that hard, it's uncommon but very similar to a common-ish word in the english language and still no one ever gets it. BUT SHE DID AND SHE WAS LITERALLY THE FIRST PERSON EVER! And i told her some of the other pronunciations people say (there's one that sounds kind like an insult) and she said "People who say that should never speak again" and did the sign language for no talk (LMAO).
And she spent, like, a minute looking all over my copy of The Raven King because it has a flap, and she said "sorry for being so fascinated but i've never seen or signed a book like this before, which is crazy cause i wrote it!"
I wanna be exactly like her when i grow up, she is all of my dream jobs combined into one: YA author, musician/composer, artist, competitive bagpiper (jk wanting to be that one. But she is a competitive bagpiper.) she is also just SO COOL. If i am ever half as cool as her my life will be fulfilling and beautiful.
Look how awesome her signature is (name reveal???):
(Yup that's definitely my name)
I also bought a set of tarot cards she illustrated and they're so gorgeous, here are some of my favorites:
Sorry for the long AF su. Anyway if you somehow aren't convinced yet PLEASE READ THE RAVEN CYCLE AND DREAMER TRILOGY PLEEEAAAAAAASEEEEEE. IT WILL CHANGE YOUR LIFE. I would say it's certainly changed mine cause this experience of meeting Maggie was once in a lifetime and i never would have had it without reading those books (i know i say this all the time but THANK YOU ELF!!!!!!!!!).
GO READ THEM PLEASE
