Brandon Sanderson / Re: Things to do in Provo while waiting to stand in line.

« on: August 30, 2010, 05:50:50 PM »

I'm a big fan of Sammy's. It's a little hole-in-the wall burger joint on 100 west just off of Center Street in Provo. Great burgers, sweet potato fries (my personal favorite), and cupcake or pie shakes. It's fun!

I got my ARC last week, but couldn't start it until today. I've been moving and have had NO time. I started it waiting in line for my number this morning! I usually can read really fast, but this one is making me pay attention! Its taking a bit longer, but is great so far! I can't wait to see the artwork in my hardback copy tonight!

I tend to be more of a lurker on this site than a poster, but I'm super excited about tomorrow's release and just wanted to say that I've pre-ordered 2 books (one for me, one for an Aunt in Texas) and will be in line with the rest for Provo's signing tomorrow! I'll see y'all there!

I've been a mostly silent lurker here for a few years, so I thought I'd introduce myself. I feel less creepy that way.

My name is Karen, and I am a few months away from a PhD in Biochemistry at BYU. I've been a Sanderson fan since I happened upon Elantris in a local bookstore, and have been eagerly awaiting each new addition to my bookshelf.

Brandon Sanderson / Re: How did you find out about Brandon Sanderson?

One fateful night I realized that I had never been to a Harry Potter midnight release party and decided that it was something I should probably check out. A half hour into standing in line, I reached over and picked Elantris off of the new local author display where it was sitting, and began to read. I was halfway through the book before It was my turn (loser in middle school=ability to read really, really fast) and put Elantris back. I just had go buy Elantris after a couple of days. I've been able to obtain signed copies of the first two Mistborn books since then, so I have actually met EUOL a few times. Nice guy. I'm super excited to be able to follow what is going to be a fun ride!

So amazing! Congratulations and good luck.

I discovered WoT back in high school when there were a half-dozen or so out, and got frustrated enough with not getting the whole story that I decided to wait until the series was complete to have one big read-fest and read them all. Ten years later... It's sad that RJ passed without being able to finish his work, but how great that he has someone that is such a fan to complete his legacy. I've been a Brandon Sanderson fan since I picked up Elantris in Borders while waiting in line for Harry Potter (5 I think) and have been a huge fan ever since. I've just lurked in timewasters before now, but this is big enough news that I wanted to jump in and make my presence known. It's a big job, but if anyone can do it, you can!
