Oh, I don't mind how much time he spends. LadyLorraine Send a noteboard - 27/04/2011 05:07:42 AM
I'm just noting why he might be spending SO MUCH time rereading. Because there are anal fanboys who will go APE over the smallest thing (rightly or wrongly), and if he doesn't want to disappoint them, he's going to have to be very thorough.

but personally, I'm so busy that I don't really care when it comes out.
Still Empress of the Poofy Purple Pillow Pile Palace!!

Is it just me, or is Sanderson's re-read of WoT taking an inordinate amount of time? Tom - 25/04/2011 08:35:10 PM 2248 Views
I would prefer it if he re-read it 5 times. I don't mind waiting. Deadsy - 25/04/2011 08:41:31 PM 1212 Views

I would love BS to get a better handle on the characters as well. RabidWombat - 26/04/2011 05:42:24 PM 1101 Views
My problems with the series have little or nothing to do with Sanderson. Tom - 27/04/2011 10:50:15 PM 936 Views
Why should you care. Just stop reading the series. RabidWombat - 28/04/2011 09:45:17 PM 1055 Views
Because I want to find out how it ends. I was quite clear about that. Tom - 30/04/2011 12:34:51 AM 939 Views
It's not like he's just reading for the hell of it. j-whitt987 - 25/04/2011 09:31:18 PM 1269 Views
Then what the hell is Maria being employed for? *NM* Tom - 27/04/2011 10:50:46 PM 486 Views
As a backup that he can go to when he can't take time to reread. j-whitt987 - 27/04/2011 11:15:48 PM 968 Views
He probably doesn't think he can afford to skim; which bits are the trivial ones? Joel - 26/04/2011 04:36:56 AM 1002 Views
Sanderson of all people should know what bits are trivial by now Tom - 27/04/2011 10:52:00 PM 841 Views
Maybe, but better safe than sorry. Joel - 28/04/2011 03:28:19 PM 910 Views
Trivial is in the eye of the beholder. RabidWombat - 28/04/2011 09:52:52 PM 958 Views
After TOM re-reads, more beta readers and lots more edits is the order of the day ajfurst - 26/04/2011 01:00:15 PM 1131 Views
That could be just as easily fixed by having a few dedicated proofreaders. Tom - 27/04/2011 10:53:49 PM 857 Views
I agree. I don't mind waiting, but it seems this re-read takes longer time than the previous one. ursidae - 26/04/2011 04:30:25 PM 1121 Views
I agree with that sentiment. Team Jordan is there to address these issues. Tom - 27/04/2011 10:56:17 PM 859 Views
You're comparing him to Martin? lol This book is going to come out 2 years after the previous *NM* Deadsy - 28/04/2011 01:01:41 AM 529 Views
*dry* but imagine if he got those skimmable parts WRONG!! LadyLorraine - 26/04/2011 04:41:23 PM 944 Views
One persons "skimmable parts" is another persons treasure. RabidWombat - 26/04/2011 06:02:35 PM 920 Views
Oh, I don't mind how much time he spends. LadyLorraine - 27/04/2011 05:07:42 AM 855 Views
I would guess that he's doing this. Myrdhyn - 26/04/2011 06:06:42 PM 1004 Views
It'd be interesting to see his desk LadyLorraine - 27/04/2011 05:10:28 AM 963 Views
Heh. No kidding. Kaldric - 27/04/2011 04:18:53 PM 889 Views
Once again, that's what Maria and Team Jordan are there for. *NM* Tom - 27/04/2011 10:56:59 PM 435 Views
I prefer him to complete his re-read and have enough time for a good series of round(s) for editing RugbyPlayingAshaman - 26/04/2011 05:06:22 PM 1122 Views
YES Tom - 27/04/2011 10:57:50 PM 931 Views
not everyone can read and retain a book in a day like i can Yunalesca - 26/04/2011 05:51:39 PM 1101 Views
I'm pretty sure most people around here can, and Brandon Sanderson can too. Tom - 27/04/2011 10:59:31 PM 926 Views
Little league, haha (mostly jk) DREWRULESWOT! - 14/05/2011 10:11:45 AM 1014 Views
He has said that he is starting to write the book since it's taking so long. Terez - 28/04/2011 05:13:09 AM 979 Views
Wish he wouldn't rush... *NM* mogi67 - 07/05/2011 08:58:18 PM 605 Views
