Lego Mistborn he/him Posted August 14, 2022 Report Share Posted August 14, 2022 When you hear a joke about freshmen being better to eat than stale-men, and think.

Mallory she/her Posted August 14, 2022 Report Share Posted August 14, 2022 When you subconsciously think that every old man, court jester or storyteller in a book is Hoid. Seriously, I routinely think I spot Hoid in the books I read. He's everywhere. When you see the words, "It's the journey, not the destination" in a book and nearly have a heart attack. When random song lyrics remind you of Kaladin or other characters. When all your friends, who haven't read the Cosmere, know certain release dates of upcoming books because you can't shut up about them. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Use the Falchion Posted August 15, 2022 Report Share Posted August 15, 2022 I found an old dream release schedule for Brandon's works in an old notebook of mine. I think it's from 2016 or 2017, but I'm not sure. Either way, it's before The Apocalypse Guard was taken off the slate and Skyward was announced. The release schedule with some added thoughts: 2018 - The Apocalypse Guard (Someday I still want to see this, even if it's one of the books the Shard gives out) 2018 - Rithmatist 2 (HA!) 2018 - Alcatraz 6 (...four years later?) 2018 - The Lost Metal (...four years later...) 2019 - The Apocalypse Guard 2 (Replace this with Starsight and I'm right on the money. But according to Dan Wells, he has ideas for a sequel!) 2020 - The Apocalypse Guard 3 (Nope.) 2020 - Stormlight 4 (Ay, I was right!) 2020 - Elantris 2 (HA!) 2020 - Dark One 1 (...well, Dark One Volume 1's original run was in 2020... This prediction was made when Dark One was still going to be a YA book series. I thought it might be the follow-up to Apocalypse Guard) 2021 - Dark One 2 (Nope, but we did get a second run of Vol 1) 2022 - Dark One 3 (No, but we're getting Dark One: Forgotten in October!) 2022 - Stormlight 5 (What an optimistic sword wielder I was...) 2022 - Elantris 3 (knowing what I now know about Sanderson's schedule, I'm not sure how on earth he would have accomplished this) I have DOZENS if not hundreds of little prediction lists like these. All of them are wrong, of course, but I guess you know you're a Sanderson fan when you create these instead of just doodling like a normal person. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BenduLuke he/him Posted August 17, 2022 Report Share Posted August 17, 2022 If you are obsessed with the idea that an aluminum twin can evolve through a combination of Hemalurgy, Forgery, and contact copying of any and all forms of allomancy and feruchemy into a Fullborn. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just a Silvereye he/him Posted August 20, 2022 Report Share Posted August 20, 2022 You know you are a Sanderfan when you dream of the title and cover reveal of Stormlight 5. And that a release date in early 2024 is announced at the same time. And that you wake up hyped as ever. If anyone's interested, the cover depicted (SA5 spoilers?) Spoiler a dragon flying out of a stormy sea. Felt really BOTW-like, now that I think of it I don't remember what the title was, but it was cool. (I think; in a dream, I would find anything really cool as a title.) 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Bookwyrm he/him Posted August 31, 2022 Report Share Posted August 31, 2022 YKYASW your teacher asks everyone to find an inspirational quote about goal setting, and instead of searching "inspirational quotes about goal setting" and picking one, you search "Brandon Sanderson quotes" then frantically try to find ones that fit. And end up picking three separate quotes instead of just one. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That1Cellist he/him Posted September 2, 2022 Report Share Posted September 2, 2022 (edited) YKYASW your teacher assigns an english assignment and you immediately wonder how many Brandon Sanderson quotes you can fit into it. But more importantly YKYASW people get annoyed with you because you were talking about cognitive shadows in church.

Just a Silvereye he/him Posted September 5, 2022 Report Share Posted September 5, 2022 I'm pretty sure this has already been brought up, but YKYAASFW when you spot Hoid in non-Brandon books. (It was actually an iconic character from the series I was reading and that I was supposed to recognize, but I missed all the blatant giveaways because my brain had decided it was Hoid) 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
