"Magic is what makes fantasy fantastic," someone says, "you can't apply rules to them or else it loses wonder!" I respond, "Sure, but if you want to write them you will certainly want to know how they work." Writing is all about execution, and I find applying some basic laws of physics to magic systems make them more understandable and realistic. Here, I'm going to outline my basic method for developing a magic system.

I just finished reading the first book. I liked it i agree that maybe there shouldbe more character development but other than that i wasnt to dissapointed. Course ive never read any of abercrombies stuff so... anyways im holding out final judgement when i finish the trilogy.

Those are interesting theories but in the book it said that Suseborn not only healed his tongue but gave him the knowledge on how to use breaths and commands and everything else sooo.... yeah i dont remember anything else

Brandon Sanderson / Re: Mistborn Movie
« on: August 03, 2009, 06:26:46 AM »
Little Wilson i know exactly how you feel about the The Dark is Rising sequence. I read all the books and when the previews came out i was stoked but when i watched the movie Sorta i fell asleep halfway through i shouted LAME in the audience. Another book turned movie was Eragon what a piece of blech i mean the razac were okay but the urgals , i thought were gonna be more ork like rather than big stupid men and the dwarves werent even short and the elves ears werent pointed, sorry almost done... and the way that Saphira grew in like 30 seconds thats was so not cool. If the mistborn movie turns out crud i hope Brandon sues. however if it turns out great like LotR trilogy i'll do my best that the rest of the trilogy comes out so im all for a movie, tv-series but i think that Brandon should have his most avid readers help with making the story true, without being to long of course.

I think this whole thing has blown out proportion...Shadow has the fact that Brandon has only published 5 books, 6 if include Dragonsteel. but thats not really availiable to the public, anyway, crossed your mind at all as i said in a previous thread in here. the more he writes the better his technique will be, and if it doesnt then im not shedding any tears of frustration or anger over his style so get over it all ready, Everyone Else just drop the matter i mean shadow is entitled to his/her opinion and if we dont like it or anything then just stop reading it okie day i mean gosh sounds like your about to beat shadow to the ground for saying whats on his mind.

Music / Re: Michael Buble...
« on: July 19, 2009, 12:35:26 AM »
Micheal Buble is a good singer though when i hear songs that were sung by Frank Sinatra, Dean Martin, Perry Como I wish he would shut up. I mean he has a great voice but so far all of his songs I've heard are none of his own... does he have any songs that are HIS. If so let me know I'd love to hear them. Question, Is there a forum for Josh Groban I haven't seen one. I probably missed it if it was there.

Vasher, Denth, Arsteel, Yersteel and Shashara are the original Returned and so yes Having Arsteel a Returned and friend becoming a lifeless would probably make Vasher think of Clod as an Abomination, who knows maybe thats why Vivenna noticed emotion in Clod. Idk thats for darn sure im just guessing on that part

Yep thats what i tell people all the time... this reminds when i didnt give a glowing report on The twilight series. I mean it was well written wtih semi-interesting characters but the plot was so blech it was like reading a vampire soap opera so yeah i know what ure tlking about

It happens, sometimes people don't like seeing their hero being put down when i first read your post i kinda freaked to but hey everyones entitiled to their viewpoint and hopefully no violence will come of it;D but i think the biggest reason for the reaction was how out of nowhere BAM you pop up wth this review thats not exactly hailing Sanderson. so some r gonna get their feelings hurt idk people are confusing

sorry to be the party pooper but maybe thats why Brandon had them as peacefull goatherders/farmers and gatherers of knowledge. But the idea of a warrior Ferechumist(spel?) is awesome somebody should suggest it to Brandon for his second Trilogy involving the planet Scadrial

Yeah I see your point about the recaps and stuff but idk its his style of writing i guess...dont forget this is his first series so he's kinda new on how to put stuff together seamlessly, im thinking his writing will defenitely improve in the near future if not oh well im not complaining he still writes excellent books
