Friendly Cremling

I’m not 100% sure, but I think it’s just a quirk of the cognitive realm.

Hello there friend. We will 100% not abduct you and force feed you cookies. I promise. You can trust me.

These are all really cool. I can’t wait to see more!

YKYASW your looking at graphic novels at Barnes and Noble and out of the corner of the eye you spot White Sand. And then you fall to your knees and gasp, picking up the books. And you’re really angry that they only have 2 & 3. Also when your teacher writes the schedule on the whiteboard and abbreviates motor break as MB. I read it as Mistborn and somehow that didn’t seem odd to me.

I chose Wax, but my favorites are really him and Wayne. I like all the characters, but my favorite moments are often their conversations. And like someone already said, they’re more enjoyable to read about when they’re in the same room.

When your mom is reading mistborn and she says she wants to make a mistcloak, and the first thing you say is “Yes! I have successfully converted you. Welcome to the cult.” also at an earlier point in time when she says mistborn is getting good, and even though you were unloading the car you just turn around immediately.

Necromancin’ Dancin’ by Bear Ghost when (warbreaker spoilers)

I’m pretty sure my first on was Steelheart. It was a couple years ago. I was in 3rd or 4th grade probably. I liked it and finished the series, but I didn’t search for Sanderson in bookstores. I started WoT in 5th grade, but I barely finished EotW. The only one I specifically remember him recommending was TWoK also in 5th grade probably. I read it, and it was simply too amazing. And I now have an extreme obsession with/addiction to Sanderson books.

*unintelligible excited screaming*

This is a great theory! You’ve convinced me. Pretty sure there’s an army of awespren around me in the Cognitive Realm right now. They broke the magic system because I felt such powerful awe. Seriously this is awesome! How in the raging winds did you have time to make this?

Foreshadowing through names is 100% something Brandon would do.

This is amazing!! Your writing is so good! I want this to happen.

Just watched that movie and OH STORMFATHER, YOU’RE RIGHT. Funny story, when we left the theater after seeing Thor: Love and Thunder, there was a highstorm. A very mild one. Some would call it a thunderstorm. You know you’re a Sanderfan when you start looking for every similarity between a marvel character and a Cosmere character.

I did this with a microwave, but I figured it out quickly (literally just a heatrial) and moved on to other kitchen appliances I don’t really know if this counts as a YKYASW but one day I walked into my ELA class and put RoW on my desk and my teacher said, “Honey, that’s not a book, that’s a weapon.” When you passed a billboard that said the word Tien and you were filled with immense joy

This is storming beautiful. I want to see more of your art!

Yesterday me and my sister were talking, she said something weird (the best line in the story), and this was born. Enjoy our madness. MUAHAHAMUAHAHAMUAHAHAHA Spoilered for size:

My names been through a lot, I can take it

Oh well, at least I didn’t tell you that *lengthy explanation of every single cosmere spoiler* WTWTTSW you become bonded to an alien symbiote who has to eat brains or chocolate to survive someone please get this

Me, who knows exactly what this is *proceeds to take cookies whilst yelling POWER!*

Insignia trilogy - WWIII is fought with drones. The main character is recruited, and he has to get a computer installed in his head to control them. It’s a really good sci-fi series and you all should read it. Six of Crows - already been mentioned, but it’s way better than the Shadow and Bone trilogy (which was written first and takes place in the same world) Michael Vey - again, already been mentioned, but I didn’t see a description. A very small number of kids (eight I think) were born with electricity based powers. There’s a school where they are trained, but it appears that the leader’s motives are not all good... The Hitchhikers Guide to the Galaxy: the Sistine Chapel of confusion. It’s incredibly strange. Earth is destroyed to make way for an intergalactic highway, and a man from Earth travels the Galaxy. Nothing makes sense. It’s very fun to read. The Name of the Wind: this is my favorite non-Sanderson book. A legend tells his story. It cuts between the story and the inn where the story is being told. It made me cry at least three times. The main character grew up with a group of traveling performers and ends up going to the University. It’s really really good.

In the first book, I can’t remember the exact phrasing, but Alcatraz says something along the lines of “before you know it, I’ll be a lawyer helping farmhands. What do mockingbirds have to do with that anyway?” I haven’t even read To Kill a Mockingbird, but I’m pretty sure this is a reference.

Yeah, like I said, I’m probably reading too much into this, but it seems like Axies would have been all over Roshar by now (and likely has been in jails all over Roshar)

So, I recently reread tWoK, and something stood out to me. Axies mentions that despite being imprisoned several times, he hasn’t ever seen a captivityspren. But Kaladin is only actually in jail once and he sees one. What I’m wondering is if captivityspren are just rare, or if there are other requirements for attracting one. Could someone attract on if they just felt trapped? Do you have to feel trapped and actually be imprisoned? I might just be reading too much into this, but tell me what you guys think.

A youth, in her teens, enters the sacred Library Hall of the Knights Awkward. She stumbles over a book on the floor. She looks down, adjusting her glasses, and, Preservation’s Wings! It’s Alloy of Law! She is filled with excitement, and yearns to read it. But for some reason that she cannot place, she feels that she can’t read it yet. Like their is something she must do. Books before friends, a voice whispers. It is faint, but she can just barely hear it. 17th Shard before... the voice quiets. Now she realizes what she must do. She speaks the oaths. “Books before friends,” she says, her voice just a little too loud. “17th Shard before the real world!” She shouts the last sentence. “RELEASE DATES BEFORE BIRTHDAYS!” She feels a burden set down, as if she has accomplished something monumental. Everyone’s probably staring at me, she realizes. She snatched Alloy of Law up from the floor and scurries over to a bean bag in the corner. But wait.. where is everyone? This place, bustling with life in the stories she had heard, was empty. Populated only by the memory of life. And of course, books. Lots and lots of books. She shrugs, and sits down, cracking open Alloy of Law. At least I can read in silence, she thinks. (Wow that was a lot longer than I meant it to be)
