Great more praise to swell up his head. ::)

But congratulations anyways. ;)

Wowzers. Not a shabby way to start the new year.

That is so exciting, Brandon. Congrats! It's all building up momentum for when Mistborn comes out. I know that my sister-in-law (who is 18-yrs old) loved Elantris and can't wait for Mistborn to come out (although she was hoping for a sequel because of how much she loved Elantris).

Remember, the Campbell is not a Hugo. I think it's emblazoned on the trophy or something in bright green letters, given the number of times they announced it as Jay tripped up the stairs.

Beyond impressive.  Congrats.  A question, though--how did you find this?  I wanted to see how publicized they were making the list, and I couldn't find it even when I was looking for it.  I wish they'd promote it a little better . . .  But awesome any way you slice it.
