Title: THE ________ Peter Ahlstrom.
Post by: Valkynphyre on June 04, 2010, 11:44:01 PM
If you haven't noticed, In the acknowledgements of most of his books he uses an adjective which is difficult to apply to humans on Peter. I think my favorite is 'insoluble.'

Anyken, This post is to make up your own Peter Ahlstrom Adjectives. I'll start with:

The unoxidizable Peter Ahlstrom.





Take it away.

You guys are missing something important, but I'm not sure if it's unintentional.
Title: Re: THE ________ Peter Ahlstrom.
Post by: aronsamma on June 07, 2010, 01:32:33 AM
Probably, but I think 'monocausational' is the way to go for sure.

The intentional Peter Ahlstrom.

(I think he means that the adjectives are supposed to start with "I", but I can't be sure.)
Title: Re: THE ________ Peter Ahlstrom.
Post by: Miyabi on June 07, 2010, 06:57:46 AM

Yes. All of the adjectives must start with an I.

I thought they were all 'in' adjectives.  Final Empire he is Incalculable, HOA he is Indivisible, Warbreaker he is Insoluable, and in Elantris, WoA, and the one Alcatraz book I own, there is no adjective.

No one told me that rule in the OP. And I still like 'monocausational'.

The Icosahedral Peter Ahlstrom
The Isallobaric Peter Ahlstrom
The Illuviated Peter Ahlstrom

Yeah, I wasn't sure, so I decided to err on the side of recklessness.

The Irascible Peter Ahlstrom
The Inconceivable Peter Ahlstrom
The Irrational Peter Ahlstrom
The Imaginary Peter Ahlstrom.

That was also the impression I got.  Actually, I think Brandon mentions it in his annotation of the acknowledgments page for HoA.

I was already indivisible, and I have a shirt to prove it.

He also has an insoluble shirt.  He was wearing it when I met him. 

@Peter
You also have an insoluble shirt.  You were wearing it when I met you.

Talking about someone who is an established participant in the conversation you're butting into is probably socially irresponsible. :P

I saw a post on on e of the forums by Peter saying that he was thinking about writing an Alternative History novel. The idea he had sounded really cool. so peter did that idea go anywhere? I think it is a great idea for a book. Then again, I am a history buff.
Title: Re: THE ________ Peter Ahlstrom.
Post by: Peter Ahlstrom on June 08, 2010, 09:00:55 PM
Actually I found out at a Worldcon that that idea had already been written by someone else. More or less. I have a note about it somewhere to look up eventually. If I can find it.

The Baroque Cycle by Neal Stephenson has some really interesting alternate history. It's a good read if you can handle a few 900-page books.

Different days, or were you wearing them on top of each other? ;) If so, I think I know what your adjective should be:

The Inadvisable Peter Ahlstrom :P

The shirt was my idea.   ;D

I'm voting for "indefatigable," because I like saying it.
