There's a cool fan-made mock Mistborn trailer, plus podcast & MYTHWALKER chapter. http://t.co/YbVK8i4h http://t.co/kheNN6Ma
BrandSanderson Mon Sep 19
Sam Wellers has a bit over 100 signed & numbered THE ALLOY OF LAW left available for preorder. http://t.co/yFTSXkBF
FlameBrain619 Mon Sep 19
@BrandSanderson Do spren play a part in the ecology of Roshar, or are they separate?
BrandSanderson Mon Sep 19
@FlameBrain619 They play an important part. Greatshells, for example, would not be able to grow as large without Spren.
BrandSanderson Wed Sep 21
Sigh. Some good scenes getting done despite some distractions over the last few days, but . . . (more)
BrandSanderson Wed Sep 21
. . . Egwene's through line keeps adding chapters. I've tried to write the last one of this sequence 3 times, and split it each time. #AMoL
BrandSanderson Wed Sep 21
@DalinarKholin Nice!

InkWing announced the winners of their latest T-shirt contest. There's also a coupon code. http://t.co/INjMfEpf

Pandora's playing a LDS children's song: 1) This does NOT fit the Last Battle. 2) How's it know I'm Mormon? It's a Tangerine Dream station.
capnspaulding Thu Sep 22
just finished the final empire by @BrandSanderson—loved every minute of it and looking forward to more, for sure.
BrandSanderson Thu Sep 22
@capnspaulding Thanks!
BrandSanderson Thu Sep 22
It's now playing Michael Buble. Somewhere in my thumbs-upping, I may have deviated from the station's electronica theme just a tad . . .
BrandSanderson Thu Sep 22
I'm going to inject Pink Floyd into the station to shake it up. By the way, I listened to Pulse again this week. Man, that album is awesome.
hoosay Thu Sep 22
@BrandSanderson when you are in the UK can you punch your publisher in the face until they put the mistborn books on kindle please? Thanks.
BrandSanderson Thu Sep 22
@hoosay They aren't on Kindle UK? I could swear the publisher promised they were.
BrandSanderson Thu Sep 22
Some of the most fun I get to have comes when Mat describes someone in his head. (Can't match RJ at doing so, but it's still fun.) #AMoL
gothfru Thu Sep 22
@BrandSanderson Late to the party, but I am currently neck-deep in the Mistborn trilogy and loving it. Thank you for so much awesome!
BrandSanderson Thu Sep 22
@gothfru Thanks!

If you haven't seen Dan's epic entry into our Explorer's Club, look here: http://www.fearfulsymmetry.net/?p=1331 (Explanation is in the post below.)
stacylwhitman Thu Sep 22
@BrandSanderson You going to be at NYCC this year? We're going to have a table.
BrandSanderson Thu Sep 22
@stacylwhitman Yup, I'll be there. Emily is coming out too. We should do dinner.
bchazan5 Thu Sep 22
Just noticed the $8 first edition copy of way of kings i got at the borders closeout was signed by @BrandSanderson and 2 artists #ff
BrandSanderson Thu Sep 22
@bchazan5 You scored. There aren't many signed by all three of us. If you can get Whelan and Call, you'll have the whole set.
BrandSanderson Fri Sep 23
Hey, all. This new Magic the Gathering set looks cool. Anyone in the Utah area want to go to a midnight prerelease event with me tonight?
XhenD Fri Sep 23
@BrandSanderson I do!!!! if I can hop on a flight from Frankfurt to Salt Lake City right now! btw my job is done, I convinced two of my friends to read Mistborn, now do I get any achievement reward?BrandSanderson Fri Sep 23
@Phidias516 My cousin lives in Frankfurt, so I'll be visiting sometime. Maybe next year. I'll bring my cards and we can play then. :)
DaveDoering Fri Sep 23
@BrandSanderson Yes, and about a thousand others like me as well!BrandSanderson Fri Sep 23
@DaveDoering Ha. Well, I posted the address if you want to come. Let me know. I'll watch for you.
shnar Fri Sep 23
@brandsanderson where at? Dragon's Keep? Games People Play?BrandSanderson Fri Sep 23
@shnar Dan has this place in West Valley he goes to, and they invited me specifically. So I think I'll go.BrandSanderson Fri Sep 23
@shnar He says it's only about a 30 min drive, though.
BrandSanderson Fri Sep 23
Okay, I'm going to the pre-release at Epic Puzzles & Games4700 S 3600 W, West Valley. It's supposed to be very easy to find.
BrandSanderson Fri Sep 23
They invited me, & enough people seem interested in playing with me that I will go. It's midnight tonight, but I'll show up at 11:30.
BrandSanderson Fri Sep 23
If you come, be sure to find and let me know so I can get you into my draft or sealed table. I'd rather play with readers than random folks.
shnar Fri Sep 23
@brandsanderson West Valley, so not Hastur Games. I think it's that (relatively) new place off Bangeter and 45th S.
BrandSanderson Fri Sep 23
@shnar Yeah, that sounds right. I posted the address. You going to come?
Doug_Dutcher Fri Sep 23
@BrandSanderson What about those of us NOT in the Utah area?:(
BrandSanderson Fri Sep 23
@Doug_Dutcher Well, I can often find time for a game when at a con or on tour or something. :)
jaylarr Fri Sep 23
@BrandSanderson Have you seen that there will be a Grand Prix in Salt Lake next year? :)
BrandSanderson Fri Sep 23
@jaylarr Don't tell me things like that. You'll tempt me to try my hand.
@BrandSanderson I actually work for the company that is running it, and would love to have you come out if you're going to be around :)BrandSanderson Fri Sep 23
@jaylarr You know, if I've got someone on the inside (so to speak) I'd be much more likely to come. What are the dates?
@BrandSanderson March 31–April 1st 2012, the format for the event hasn't been announced yet, but should be lots going on regardlessBrandSanderson Fri Sep 23
@jaylarr Cool. I've got a tour in Australia in that timeframe, so I don't know if I'll be here. But if I am, I'd like to come.BrandSanderson Fri Sep 23
@jaylarr If it's a draft/sealed I'd probably even participate officially. Standard/Modern is less likely.
@BrandSanderson I'll be let you know what the format is as we hear from WotC. It's likely we're going to be running Draft Opens though!BrandSanderson Fri Sep 23
@jaylarr I loves me some drafting. It looks like I leave for Australia on the 3rd, so I'll even be in town. Drop me an email when you know.
Southpaw2014 Fri Sep 23
@BrandSanderson you recently said you were just over 60% finished with AMoL, how much % will RJ's ending take up when you put it in?
BrandSanderson Fri Sep 23
@Southpaw2014 I'm guessing about 10%.
@BrandSanderson is it gonna get slid right in or are you going to adjust it some to fit into how you're leading up to it?BrandSanderson Fri Sep 23
@Southpaw2014 The ending scene will work fine, no changes. I've targeted things that way, as I didn't want the ending scene to change.
@BrandSanderson I mean I know you're following his outline but has it worked well so far into leading up to that ending scene he has?BrandSanderson Fri Sep 23
@Southpaw2014 However, he left a TON of 'after the end scene' type stuff that is probably epilogue material. That I'll need to modify.
1stRainbowRose Fri Sep 23
@BrandSanderson @johncleaver Will there be a cost to the draft tonight, and if so what is it?
BrandSanderson Fri Sep 23
@1stRainbowRose @johncleaver I honestly don't know, but Dan might. My guess would be in the $20 range if we draft, $30 for sealed.BrandSanderson Fri Sep 23
@1stRainbowRose @johncleaver I prefer drafts, but I don't know if we can do one tonight. We may have to do sealed.
KingKrylor Fri Sep 23
@BrandSanderson been a reader for a while. Also a writer—just released my book. Wish I could be there! Win or lose it'd be epic.
BrandSanderson Fri Sep 23
@KingKrylor Cool! What's your book?
Oldest_Sarge Fri Sep 23
@BrandSanderson Oh man, I would love to be there, but batteries on wheelchair have given up the ghost, I live in WVC. Arrrgh. aka @rahvin1
BrandSanderson Fri Sep 23
@Oldest_Sarge Would an Alloy of Law ARC cheer you up? I've got an extra, and I still owe you for those cards. ;)
@BrandSanderson Do you need my address again? Or do you still have it?BrandSanderson Fri Sep 23
@Oldest_Sarge I just spent like five min digging in my inbox trying to find it. That place is a disaster. If you could send it again . . .
BrandSanderson Fri Sep 23
To those coming to the Magic game tonight (see the previous posts) I will happily sign your books, if you bring them.
travishall456 Fri Sep 23
@BrandSanderson Twere we to mail you a card to sign (with return postage) would you do so?BrandSanderson Fri Sep 23
@travishall456 Lol. Sure, I'd do that. Email me through my website.
BrandSanderson Fri Sep 23
Want to play Magic with me tonight? I collected the details here. http://t.co/3QmtqsT6
cj31016 Fri Sep 23
@BrandSanderson I have never played Magic, but have always wanted to get into it. Just not sure where to start. Big fan of your work here!
BrandSanderson Fri Sep 23
@cj31016 The Xbox/Steam/Playstation game is pretty fun, and a cheap way to learn.
FlameBrain619 Fri Sep 23
@BrandSanderson Is it possible to come and not play? I'd love to, but I just can't pay for it. And it would be fun to just hang out.
BrandSanderson Fri Sep 23
@FlameBrain619 You could certainly stop by and get a book signed and say hi. Once the playing starts, though, you might want to drift out.BrandSanderson Fri Sep 23
@FlameBrain619 It might be distracting for people if someone is just hanging out the entire time.
Doug_Dutcher Fri Sep 23
@BrandSanderson I haven't played MtG in years. Strangely, I found a factory sealed starter deck from 1994 in my closet. Interested?:)
BrandSanderson Fri Sep 23
@Doug_Dutcher Ha. 94, eh? Is it revised or 4th edition? It should be revised, and if so, those are worth about $50 or $60 now.BrandSanderson Fri Sep 23
@Doug_Dutcher I'd give you some signed hardcovers or an Alloy of Law ARC for it. I haven't opened one of those in years.
@BrandSanderson I'm thinking it's revised ed. but not entirely sure. If you ever find yourself in central Ohio, maybe you can have a look.BrandSanderson Fri Sep 23
@Doug_Dutcher Revised actually says it on the front. Central Ohio is going to be a long shot, but I make it to Dayton now and then.BrandSanderson Fri Sep 23
@Doug_Dutcher http://t.co/9KWd4jYg That's Revised. http://t.co/wmJquQhy That's fourth. ;)BrandSanderson Fri Sep 23
@Doug_Dutcher I only mention because if it happens to be one of THESE, then you're suddenly rich: http://t.co/PVwMI8cT
@BrandSanderson Well, it's not Unlimited, but it IS 3rd ed.Let me know the next time you hit Dayton. Be happy to meet up, if possible.BrandSanderson Fri Sep 23
@Doug_Dutcher It's almost certain I'll be there for A Memory of Light, so next year sometime. :)
@BrandSanderson I'll lock that deck up in a safe place for now.Will you be bringing Howard and Dan along?:)BrandSanderson Fri Sep 23
@Doug_Dutcher Ha. Unlikely. Touring together would probably mean we never got any work done . . .
killerjello Fri Sep 23
@BrandSanderson Hello, what's the skinny on the Magic release party?
BrandSanderson Fri Sep 23
@killerjello Details on my blog. Game store in West Valley. $30 or so buy in for cards. Midnight tonight.(Scan my twitter for more.)
Thomas_Olivent Fri Sep 23
@BrandSanderson Any talk about releasing the information on the two prologue type books that RJ originally planned to write?
BrandSanderson Fri Sep 23
@Thomas_Olivent We might release what they were going to be about. I don't think they will get written.
BrandSanderson Sun Sep 25
For those wondering about Magic last night, it went okay. I went 3–1, but that loss came first. Basically, I won the loser's bracket.
BrandSanderson Sun Sep 25
First 3 picks were solid. Then White vanished & I struggled on my 2nd color. http://twitpic.com/6q6mqg
BrandSanderson Mon Sep 26
AMoL progress bar moved from 61% to 66%. Sorry about the lack of movement last week. I forgot to tick up the progress bar.
BrandSanderson Mon Sep 26
Leigh Butler interviewed me, and Pat Rothfuss's assistant and mine were on Writing Excuses. Plus new MYTHWALKER. http://t.co/iXfl9MT3

Hanging with @theoryland and @dragonmount, two of the main wot fansite founders.
BrandSanderson Tue Sep 27
The Ranting Dragon is giving away 3 advance reading copies of the new Mistborn, THE ALLOY OF LAW. (US & Canada only.) http://t.co/YKer05No
BrandSanderson Wed Sep 28
An important moment in #AMoL centers on one character turning to another and asking, "How much do you trust Mat Cauthon?" How much indeed.
BrandSanderson Wed Sep 28
Did a very fun Magic draft with @dragonmount, @IzykStewart, and another friend last night. Coldsnap. It is an awesome set to draft.
BrandSanderson Wed Sep 28
The fun part was that there was no clear winner. I defeated Isaac, Isaac defeated Jason, Jason defeated Nick, Nick defeated me.
BrandSanderson Wed Sep 28
However, I DID also defeat Jason (aka @dragonmount.) That's the important part, right?
RichardFife Wed Sep 28
@BrandSanderson He didn't "let" you win in exchange for spoilers again, did he? Might need to get @theoryland to re-arrest him.BrandSanderson Wed Sep 28
@RichardFife Lol. @Theoryland and I already pranked Jason once this trip. That's probably enough . . .
BrandSanderson Fri Sep 30
Was organizing my Magic cards last night, getting out a few packs to open as rewards to get my AMoL daily wordcount up. (Yes, I'm a nerd.)
DannyMullinax Fri Sep 30
@BrandSanderson Do you have organization issues like me? I get them all nice and neat, then open a few new packs and bam! out of sync.BrandSanderson Fri Sep 30
@DannyMullinax Yeah, it's a constant battle.
Billy_Todd Fri Sep 30
@BrandSanderson What are you most hoping to open out of the new set?BrandSanderson Fri Sep 30
@Billy_Todd Tough call. The new Lilliana looks awesome, and she is no longer ugly, so maybe that.
BrandSanderson Fri Sep 30
I found cards someone sent me via my Amazon wishlist, but the vendor included no name. So if you sent some and never got thanked, sound off.
@BrandSanderson If it was DISSENSION Lot of 5 Booster packs, I never heard if you received them, all the others you acknowledged. @rahvin1BrandSanderson Fri Sep 30
@Oldest_Sarge @rahvin1 That's it! Many thanks again, Ray. (BTW, I sent your arc with my assistant, and it should get to you soon.)
Ohh_whaaat Fri Sep 30
@BrandSanderson would u consider making the mistborn world into a movie trilogy if the opportunity arose? Has (cont) http://t.co/9iIV2ikC
BrandSanderson Fri Sep 30
@Ohh_whaaat I have sold rights, but so far all we have is a script and a lot of high hopes.
BrandSanderson Fri Sep 30
FINALLY done with the through line I've been working on for weeks now. Progress bar moved to 70% done. #AMoL
LouFarris Fri Sep 30
@BrandSanderson that's cool Brand!! can't wait! do u know the Dark Tower Saga by Stephen King??
BrandSanderson Fri Sep 30
@LouFarris Yes. King is an excellent writer.
USrinath49 Fri Sep 30
@BrandSanderson when can we expect it??? what do you think?? #reallyreallycan'twait!!
BrandSanderson Fri Sep 30
@USrinath49 Sometime next year. I suspect they'll set a date when I give them the first draft in November.
BrandSanderson Fri Sep 30
Now, to fire a gun that has been sitting on the mantle since the middle (chapters 30–40) of book 3. #AMoL. Guess away. http://t.co/OmaV8PAQ
BrandSanderson Fri Sep 30
Theoryland thread on what I just posted: http://t.co/4vFnyvfa Thanks @Terez27
benkluge Fri Sep 30
@BrandSanderson @Terez27 Has anyone got close yet:) ?
Terez27 Fri Sep 30
@benkluge @BrandSanderson Pfft, we've barely started yet.
@Terez27 @BrandSanderson I know—but once we have got started the odds of possibly getting an answer drop from very low to zero.BrandSanderson Fri Sep 30
@benkluge @Terez27 Ha. I already flirt with giving away too much. I doubt you'll pull anything more from me for a while.
4thAge Fri Sep 30
@BrandSanderson I'm sure with how conscious you are of us examining your every word you checked, so are you SURE it's in those chapters?
BrandSanderson Fri Sep 30
@4thAge 99% sure.
SaintEhlers Sat Oct 01
@Maddrjeffe @stacylwhitman @BrandSanderson @johncleaver @jjcreer @chriscoray @tesana @robisonwells @EthanSkar input plz http://t.co/B4QlN7AO
BrandSanderson Sat Oct 01
@SaintEhlers I think it should bleed more. Steampunk bleeds into fantasy, and urban fantasy bleeds into horror, for example.
asgjholland Fri Sep 30
@BrandSanderson reading HoA and wondering Y Elend doesn't do a duralumin sooth on the Koloss in the opening of the book? Will I learn L8r?
BrandSanderson Sat Oct 01
@asgjholland It's explained fairly quickly. There's an Inquisitor to take care of first.
BrandSanderson Mon Oct 03
Some interesting tweets by @DonaldMustard over the last few days. Interesting indeed. Hmm . . .
BrandSanderson Tue Oct 04
For those interested, I got a mention during the iphone [4S] announcement today. Blog post on its way. [Editor's note: The announcement went off-script, so Brandon's novella wasn't mentioned onstage.]
BrandSanderson Tue Oct 04
I wrote a new novella ebook that you can get today, called INFINITY BLADE: AWAKENING. http://t.co/GOiLSDsy
AncientGuruHamm Tue Oct 04
@BrandSanderson Thusfar the story is not available on Kindle or Nook stores. Guess those of us with non-apple devices have to wait.
BrandSanderson Tue Oct 04
@AncientGuruHamm We pushed "Publish" on Nook and Kindle too, but have to wait for them to show up. We had an in at ibooks to make it fast.
deksta Tue Oct 04
@BrandSanderson Brandon, any reason why is this ebook not available for European amazon users?
BrandSanderson Tue Oct 04
@deksta Shouldn't be a reason. Let me get on that.
danocox Tue Oct 04
@BrandSanderson I always wondered if you were connected to that series in someway. The GodKing felt quite Mistborn inspired. Coincidence?
BrandSanderson Tue Oct 04
@danocox They were fans. I wasn't connected, but I was an inspiration, I believe.
KarimSaliba Tue Oct 04
@BrandSanderson Any official word on the release date for "A Memory of Light"?
BrandSanderson Tue Oct 04
@KarimSaliba They'll chose one when I finish the rough draft, I believe. Should be a big announcement in November.
jlconlin Tue Oct 04
@BrandSanderson Is there more than a coincidence between Apple's "Siri" and "Siris", the character in your Infinity Blade novella?
BrandSanderson Tue Oct 04
@jlconlin No. Siris is the name the IB people chose for mythological reasons only.
FrancoisPepper Tue Oct 04
copyright laws causing a fail of the epic variety . . . can't access @BrandSanderson 's kindle version of "Infinity Blade: Awakening" #sadpanda
BrandSanderson Tue Oct 04
@FrancoisPepper ??? If it's because you're international, it should be coming live soon. It's not about copyright, just website slowness.
grainassault Tue Oct 04
@BrandSanderson Mistborn 1 and 3 are available on Kindle in the UK, but Well of Ascension isn't. Any idea why?
BrandSanderson Tue Oct 04
@grainassault They have been taking them each down lately for a short time to put in typo changes, I believe.
BrandSanderson Wed Oct 05
Mat is so much fun to write. The trick, which is hard, is to get the right mix of humor & awesome. One without the other just isn't Mat.
@BrandSanderson Ahh, confirmation. And good luck with Mat. ;)BrandSanderson Wed Oct 05
@Terez27 Not sure what I'm confirming, but okay. On the thing I tweeted before, it's obviously NOT 13x13. It is cool, but smaller than that.
Ohh_whaaat Wed Oct 05
@BrandSanderson I seek advice,please how do you write humor into a character if your not necessarily funny yourself?
BrandSanderson Wed Oct 05
@Ohh_whaaat We did several Writing Excuses podcasts on this. It really depends on the type of funny you want.BrandSanderson Wed Oct 05
@Ohh_whaaat For witty humor—you can be funny, as you get to think about your replies out ahead of time. Pitch perfect lines to characters.BrandSanderson Wed Oct 05
@Ohh_whaaat For character humor, put people into situations outside of their comfort zone and have them muddle about.BrandSanderson Wed Oct 05
@Ohh_whaaat Someone like Mat is tough because his humor is a mixture of untrustworthy narrator and outrageous thought patterns.
@BrandSanderson well let me ask another way. How do you give your chars a trait in abundance that you lack? yknow brandon,you are an amazing human being. I fully expected to be totally ignored. Thank you again.BrandSanderson Wed Oct 05
@Ohh_whaaat Again, it's thought and foresight. Your advantage is the great time, preparation, and care you can take to imitate.BrandSanderson Wed Oct 05
@Ohh_whaaat It helps to interview/read about people unlike yourself, with those traits.
Jonzman Wed Oct 05
@BrandSanderson Not sure if you wish to defend yourself: http://t.co/mB0T8gRW

@Jonzman Thanks for the heads up.

PeterAzP Wed Oct 05
@BrandSanderson "The auction will be through eBay and 10% of the proceeds will go to the Mayo Clinic" Wait, 10%? What about to the other 90?BrandSanderson Wed Oct 05
@PeterAzP To Jordancon, a non-profit. (It's all there in the blog post.)
BrandSanderson Wed Oct 05
On the #AMoL name drive: this is PRIMARILY a fund raiser for Jordancon, which Harriet and I believe deserves support.
BrandSanderson Wed Oct 05
For a while, I've been wanting to do this to help Jordancon make ends meet, as I think it is a great way to honor RJ's name and legacy.
BrandSanderson Wed Oct 05
Please note that Jordancon HAS applied to be tax-exempt as a 501(c)3. This means you will probably be able to deduct your donations.
BrandSanderson Thu Oct 06
There's an interview with me posted up at IGN about the Infinity Blade novella. http://t.co/p2muzbHe
BrandSanderson Thu Oct 06
INFINITY BLADE: AWAKENING is up to #7 on iBooks. The low price keeps it lower on the chart, since they go by total $$. http://t.co/nEBoWAuV
BrandSanderson Thu Oct 06
Sam Weller's has only 68 signed&numbered copies left of MISTBORN: THE ALLOY OF LAW for you to reserve. Deadline Oct 14.http://t.co/WabOnCac
@BrandSanderson I've already pre-ordered one but I still have one question: What do you mean by "numbered"?BrandSanderson Thu Oct 06
@XhenD It's something I do for the release parties and pre-orders. Each book gets a number to indicate it was part of one of those events.
BrandSanderson Thu Oct 06
Baby Meatloaf + Bag of Cheetos Poofs = Is there a Kid in that orange mess?
claytonphillips Thu Oct 06
@BrandSanderson Any insight as to why Infinity Blade: Awakening isn't up on the Nook Store? At least, it isn't for me . . .
BrandSanderson Thu Oct 06
@claytonphillips We're working on it. Looks like Nook takes more time to approve a book than Kindle/ibooks does.
BrandSanderson Thu Oct 06
They're giving away one ARC of THE ALLOY OF LAW (US only, sorry) at Only the Best Science Fiction & Fantasy. http://t.co/9crtbpeK

@KattySchmitty This is awesome beyond words.
Bmueller11 Thu Oct 06
Hey Brandon—I always thought Logain had a cool character arc. How much of him do we see in AMOL?@BrandSanderson
BrandSanderson Thu Oct 06
@Bmueller11 He will be seen. How much, or in what capacity, would be a spoiler, I'm afraid.
BrandSanderson Thu Oct 06
Well, THAT was a scene people have been waiting to read for many books. You know, it's very hard to talk about #AMoL without spoilers.
BrandSanderson Thu Oct 06
Let's see . . . what can I say without spoilers? This involves 2 near deaths in a scene where most wouldn't expect any. #AMoL #AesSedaivagueness
BrandSanderson Thu Oct 06
#AMoL progress bar moved to 75%. This puts it at 225k words so far, roughly the size of book eight. (Using 300k as a guess for the final.)
BrandSanderson Thu Oct 06
You can now order a signed copy of TOWERS OF MIDNIGHT from my site. Plus holiday shipping deadlines. http://t.co/J2kEl1Fy
ericpeters Thu Oct 06
@BrandSanderson One of the interviews mentioned the last book getting split up into 2 books, did you still think 300k words is a good #?
BrandSanderson Thu Oct 06
@ericpeters Yes, it's a good number. The book will run longer (mine always do) but it will be roughly that length. 400k at the upper end.
wordsbyzodda Thu Oct 06
@BrandSanderson The Return of Narg!
BrandSanderson Thu Oct 06
Yes, @wordsbyzodda. It's obviously the return of Narg that I'm talking about. The Dark One transmigrated him into a sheep. #AMoL
jeanette1969 Fri Oct 07
@BrandSanderson Speaking of Towers of Midnight. When will it be on paperback. Anxiously awaiting.
BrandSanderson Fri Oct 07
@jeanette1969 Released in paperback in the US this week, I believe.
