They're just Connected and Stephen Root has the more heavily Invested spirit web.
Or Brandon has been stealing Stephen's Identity
Only his investiture

Fuck Moash
Maybe, just maybe, he’ll redeem himself but yeah… not likely.
Yeah Kelsier just walked up.
How lock has there been a Cremposting community?? I looked for it a while ago and was so sad. I missed you guys!!
Umm… excuse me… but this is my shard plate
How is Sanderson's net worth only $6M? Are movies that much more profitable than novels? Rawlings is worth over a billion dollars!
Brandon isn't looking to squeeze every dollar out of the books. Even in the bookstore I use to buy his books, they come without any DRM. Which is admirable, but also is going to affect the profits because of pirating
Yep, Sanderson is a gem. Broke up a big deal with Amazon because they were price gauging authors. He went shopping around for an alternative to audible, speechify offered him 100% of the royalties compared to audibles 40%. He counter offered to 70% because he thought it was a fair industry standard.
Amazon is taking 60% of the royalties from authors? What the fuck? That's straight up exploitation. So, someone comes up with a completely unique idea, spends years of their life to create it, and Amazon thinks they should get 60% of the money just because they provided a store that practically manages itself as a place to sell it? Fucking, UGH!
That is what they were offering Brandon Sanderson, one of the biggest and most productive authors in science fiction/fantasy. The reason he broke it off was because he realized if they were taking 60% from him, they were murdering smaller authors.
This is extortion. The government should bring them up on charges of racketeering.
That's true about the DRM. I've always very much appreciated that gesture.
He writes good shit for a reasonable price, quite simply.
Everytime I see something about him, I crave a Reckoners series. Like, live action, with several seasons. It should either start before the book series or expand on the parts that happened between books. More characters, more investigations. A possible style could be at least one new Epic per episode. Kind of like cop dramas where each episode is a different crime (or epic) with overarching themes.
I DON'T want a focus on relationships of just a couple people, especially the love story. The Reckoners would have very slow character development since the focus would be figuring out epics' weaknesses, usually followed by execution.
Memes and cremposts about the complete works of Brandon Sanderson.
