The hand movements are only necessary if that is the way you originally learn the weave.
News:
A lot of people describe Scalzi’s Old Man's War novels as military science fiction, but I would classify its sequel Zoë’s Tale as a space opera. It’s a story about, well, Zoë, a teenage girl whose parents are invited to take leadership roles in building a colony on a new planet. Zoë is an enthusiastic member of the group sent to colonize Roanoke, despite the risks—and the risks are considerable even before the political machinations of greater powers boil to the surface.

Brandon Sanderson / Re: Hoid??
« on: November 18, 2008, 07:04:00 PM »At the very least, Brandon created a character to play as himself if the movies are ever made
I like this idea. I will picture Brandon as Hoid from now on

Yes! This is a great topic!

I'm a newbie, but I was reading through some old threads and I think that this one needs a return to prominence. I've never seen anyone eat a hat

Brandon Sanderson / Re: What can writers learn from Mistborn? *Spoilers*
« on: November 13, 2008, 02:43:56 AM »
Regarding Elend: At the end of the second book, it felt a little bit gimmicky to me when he became a Mistborn. But after finishing HOA, it made a lot more sense because the whole god-as-metal thing is an important part of the plot. And after reading through a few more chapters which described what was going on between the books, Elend's character development was a lot more understandable. I think it worked in the end, although it was surprising at first.

I liked Zane...
I voted for FE, but they were all really good in their own way. Kind of like different flavors of ice cream. Strawberry, then chocolate? Or chocolate, then strawberry? The world may never know.

Brandon Sanderson / Re: Splitting A Memory of Light...
« on: November 12, 2008, 01:06:51 AM »He also said splitting would mean that the first half could be published earlier while the second half was still a work in progress.
I guess earlier would be good...or maybe it would be like prolonging the torture

« on: November 12, 2008, 01:02:26 AM »Am I the only one who wanted to see more feruchemy? But anyway I vote for the master of push and pull!
Yes! More feruchemy! That would be awesome to see someone who is skilled at using feruchemy for fighting (unlike Sazed who is definitely a reluctant warrior). Maybe the next trilogy?

I think Kelsier vs. Inquisitor was the best. It was the first big fight in the books so you kind of have to compare everything else to it. Not that the other fights weren't cool, but this one was extremely well written and had a big impact in the storyline. Everyone does impossible stuff, but Kelsier did it first!

It is a really long series, but you won't have to wait long until you can read all of them! I think half of the problem for some (me!) is that you had to wait so long for each book to come out and it is only 1/12th of the story! But you can read it all at once.

I don't know why they would need to publish the two halves a month apart. It's not like someone will read the first half and then decide that they don't want to read the ending to the whole series! I think it should just be published as a two volume set right away so we don't have to wait any longer.

Brandon Sanderson / Re: Warbreaker Cover
« on: November 07, 2008, 03:24:40 AM »I was browsing through here, and saw that there were a LOT of questions regarding my intentions for this cover.
I figured I would register to answer some of them.
Thanks, Dan, for answering all our questions! I think the cover looks great!
