That man is ridiculous Darth_Katie Send a noteboard - 13/10/2010 05:51:37 PM
In a seriously good way.

Wow. Just, wow. I don't know too many authors that are this nice to fans when it comes to release dates on books. Then again, I don't know too many authors that are so forthcoming about their writing process, and exactly how long a book is going to take.


I am continually amazed by how well he communicates with his fans. It's great! I love all the annotations he does on his website, it's so interesting, and fun to see how things could have been. I love the way he discusses the process of formulating new ideas and writing a whole novel.

The coolest part of this post is at the bottom where he runs through the fact that Mistborn is a trilogy of trilogies, and that he's basically got tons of ideas in one stage of development or another. Sounds like this is basically his plan for about the next, oh, 35-40 years or so.


I wonder what the third Mistborn trilogy will be like? Hmm ...

Also, super pumped for Nightblood! Nightblood was definitely one of my favorite characters in Warbreaker ... hooray!
Insert theme music here.

Yeah when I first read the title, I thought this was going to be a rant about Sanderson. *NM* BlackAdder - 14/10/2010 04:46:28 PM 577 Views
