Congraduations Mr. Sanderson!!!!!
« on: August 22, 2008, 09:55:56 PM »
I read your Warbreaker version that was available for download from mnybks.net.  I believe it is a version 4 or a version 4.something.  Despite the spelling mistakes, it was interesting.  Perhaps the beginning portion or so was a little lower for me to stay hooked, but then I got hooked later on.  Great twist about Bluefingers, and great move by Lightsong.  Anyways, congraduations, Mr. Sanderson.  Bravo.  I suppose this read, I felt more emotion than your first Mistborn book.  Harray for you!

If you can answer this question, then please do.  How many hours of work do you estimate you spent on the first draft, and other subsequent drafts?  I am inspired to want to be an author just like you!  Maybe I will be the next Dan Brown, too!!!

Please no.  Please no.  I liked Angels and Demons, and then I read his other books, and realized something.  They are ALL exactly the same, just with different characters, and scenarios filled in the blanks.  They always start with a murder (usually of one of the family members), someone who they trust is a traitor, and then it ends with the characters getting it on (except for in Davinci Code).  With his five or six books out there already, I think we have had enough of that story.

Absolutely!  If you just try really hard you will, eventually, be able to overcome all your many handicaps.  Go for it dude!
