"I'm just taking a few days off" - presumably that means just writing a couple of extra secret novels.
No Doubt
A few days? Bro deserves a month at least.
@@VoxAstra-qk4jz If we give him a month off we'll have a new parallel universe Stormlight trilogy by the end of it... Give him a month!
I still don't get enough of that joke😂😂😂 still funny
I imagine Brandon writing on the move, while his copy editor follows him like a Scooby-Doo villain.
*Pink Panther music plays*
Lol
😅love it
Brandon Sanderson is apologetic to people for adding an extra 90k words to his book.... I'm at a loss for how insane the concept of accidentally adding 90k words to a project is to me. Hopefully its all in one chapter called "the final battle" and its just The Lopen breakdance fighting with the champion of Odium on a soulcast, flattened cardboard box while all the rest of the shards act as judges...
Wow this last sentence got wilder and wilder as it went along hahaha
@@haldalas I mean you say that, but we both know whatever the Sanderslanche at the end of WaT ends up being will be a fever trip that makes this seem logical and normal. I can't wait to read, gonna probably be useless for the rest of the day after its over.
The WoT Final Battle chapter was incredible. I want it again but in stormlight archive.
It was 2k extra words, I thought.
@@carsonrush3352I think he’s comparing the 490k of storm light 5 to the 400k of WoK
The dude that jumped up on the table is so real for that
100%
It was literally a staged, produced clip. Not sure real is the right word there.
@@watcherofthewest8597 obviously, they were told to cheer. However, I believe that how they cheered was spontaneous.
I sarted reading Brandom a bit after I was diagnosed with leukemia and his books have been a great source of joy and much needed distraction. I'm very happy that I'll be able to read Stormlight 5 the same year they've given me a clean bill of health
Strength before Weakness Radiant! Happy to hear you'll be able to continue to enjoy the cosmere with us
Congrats, glad to hear you’re healthy!
Amazing to hear you'll be healthy again. Just curious, how did you discover that you had leukemia?
@@hallokagarman5310 I was feeling weak, had a persistent cough and lost a lot of weight in a very short time, when my doctor saw this he did some blood test and it was clear from the results that something was very wrong
To your good health! May it endure.
I can't believe that in just 6 months he'll already be onto Mistborn Era 3. This man is a machine
`My excitement for book five is at *bing* 100%
Underrated comment and secondly, only 100% ?
Brandon Sanderson “taking time off” is more productive than I’ll ever be at my busiest
You have accomplished something astounding. You absolutely deserve a long break after this (and not just to write Secret Project 6).
He deserves it, but he won't take it.
@@magus3553and he’ll write secret project 6!
We all know he'll be done with secret project 87 at the end of his next "break"
He just told that he had 2 days off so you bet that there is going to be SP6 announcement soon 😂
Writing something different is his way of taking a break.
LIFE BEFORE DEATH LETS FUCKING GO
STRENGTH BEFORE WEAKNESS
@@WasatchWind JOURNEY BEFORE DESTINATION
THESE WORDS ARE ACCEPTED
I AM GLOWING!
@@realsteal0003YOU WILL BE SHARDLESS. I WILL NOT HAVE YOU STRIKING PEOPLE WITH ME
"Speaking of digital games" had me for a moment 😂
Seriously, me too. I kind of think that was the point in phrasing it like that...
my heart stopped for a moment lol
seen myself already shooting coins
Some fun maths: given the word counts for Stormlight 1 through 5, if Brandon would've continued this trend (and not cut back for Stormlight 6) then Stormlight 10 would be around 620000 words.
The tome itself would then be in the ballpark of 1600 pages, so even if split in two volumes, that's still two 800 page chonkers.
The Leather Copy would end up being 3 Volumes at that size 😂😅
That would make the leather copy 3 Volumes at that size 😂😅
What a time to be alive 🎉❤😊
We are all blessed to be alive during the Sanderson Era
I was full on expecting "im tired of Stormlight and therefore I'll be taking a break for 6 months" ... and then he launches into his plans for the rest of the year. Sanderson just doesn't take breaks! 🤣
I am INCREDIBLY hyped for the prose version of White Sands. I adore that story.
100% BING!
Yo an extra 90k words is basically an extra bonus novel. I’m not complaining
For Sanderson that is a really short story.
I started cheering.. Then the jump cut came in from of the folks at Dragonsteel... and I was no longer cheering alone. Thank you for that.
Extremely excited for white sand prose version!
Agreeeeed!
Ohhhh! I’m really looking forward to White Sand!
Same!!! Taldain deserves all the love
canon prose White Sand is huge news!
The absolute anticipation and dread I have for this book is in equal portion. These books and characters have been with me through so much and their growth echoed my own and highlighted places of growth. Thank you for all you do and for sharing your imagination with the world.
I read Mistborn Era 1 recently (I really loved it), and I ordered The Way of Kings today, I'm excited to start reading Stormlight Archive series, and I'm glad the fifth book is done! Can't wait to get into more of your writing!
Just make sure after way of kings you read warbreaker, and after words of radiance you read edgedancer! I wish I could go back do that! Not super important, but there’s alotta connections to be made there.
If you don’t like slow buildups (and I mean very, very, very slow buildups) then you might have a difficult time reading The Way of Kings. I like it, but man is it annoying to read at times. If that’s you too, then my advice would be to take a break from it and come back to it later. That’s what I had to do. Several months ago I put it down because I just couldn’t take the slowness of it anymore. I picked it back up yesterday and have been reading it with a renewed vigor. Hopefully I finish it on this attempt.
@@austinquick6285 I didn't realize the connections to Warbreaker the first time. I realized there were some similarities but that was it.
@@rriggs6547 there’s crossover at the end of words of radiance, and ostensibly all throughout oathbringer
@@darthmalgus232 i thought it had great pacing. You just gotta remember, it’s the 1st book of a 10 part series, so a lot of it is character/world building, but the last few hundred pages of the book are SOOO worth it. You just gotta grind your way through. I think when I first read it, I read approximately 75-100 pages a day, and it was a great source of entertainment for 2 weeks.
Last year I got halfway through Oathbringer and got overwhelmed by all the lore on lore on lore. I’m starting over from book 1 now, giving it another shot. I’ve given up on George Martin, I’m at the point now where I just don’t care as much about the winds of winter. You, on the other hand, are actually writing the books. Cheers!
the Coppermind is your friend.
@@hrbacon
The thing about the Coppermind is that it constantly references WoB and other sources that haven't been seen in the books, which makes it more - not less - confusing, at least to me
the second (and third, and fourth) time help!
The RPG he announced will have a worldbook that you can buy separately.
Yeah everything surrounding the everstorm and the spren are so damn overwhelmingly complicated/ambiguous, thats the book i started going "alright what the hell is even going on here?"
The Knights Radiant…. have returned.
Seems so crazy that Sanderson is sponsoring my Alma Mater! Looking forward to see how this partnership develops!
Erraaaa 3 Mistborn!
isnt that gonna be 1980s sci fi
@@RobinsMusicera 3: 1980, era 4: cyberpunk, era 5: space opera
Never played league of legends but now I need to get a Brandon Sanderson scholarship
Please don't kill anyone Please don't kill anyone Please don't kill anyone Please don't kill anyone Please don't kill anyone Please don't kill anyone 🙏
Hahaha! I was actually talking with my daughter yesterday about who we thought might die and how that would affect characters.
I'm hoping Syl dies. I think that would be such an interesting turn for the story and the ultimate test of whether Kaladin has grown enough that he can process grief in a healthy way or if it will actually destroy him.
No please 😭😭😭😭 @@UdyKumra
@@UdyKumranooo 😭 I don't know if he's ready for that
@@UdyKumra I think you might be evil
I am SO EXCITED for Book 5! Almost done with my RoW reread.
I know this was a real toll, congratulations on making it through this monster Brandon! I cannot wait to read it!
Thank you for your dedication. I began like you (we are the same age), loving being told stories. My dad read me The Hobbit and the LotR as a 4 year old boy. Those were our fathers passions... what made their imaginations run wild. The same things they wanted for all of us. As much as I love those stories to the core of my soul, I've always felt like it wasn't TRULY ours. It was theirs, and that was great because what kid doesn't want to be passionate about what captivated their father as a youth? Stormlight (and all of the Cosmere) feels like something I can pass on to my children, and watch the light fill their eyes in wonder. So again... thank you for giving me this opportunity.
You are the reason I started reading again! The Way of Kings was the first book I read in 6 years and I’m about to finish Oathbringer! I can’t wait to finish the first 5 books of Stormlight Archive this year and then I will start Mistborn. Thank you!
I'm SOOO looking forward to Isles of the Emberdark!!!! (I backed it too) 🥳🥳🥳 As a dark fantasy author, I *REALLY* enjoyed Sixth of the Dusk because of its darker tones, so I'm glad you're working on Emberdark next! 😄💙📚
The name Emberdark also reminds me of the Underdark from DnD, which is NOT a bad thing either! 😋😋😋
Hey... you say you're a dark fantasy author... I have a question, then. What defines something as dark fantasy? I'm trying to classify some stories and I'm having trouble figuring out if they're dark enough to call them actual dark fantasy.
Oh, hey, Underdark. Yeah, that's a GREAT thing. I love drow.
@@ceinwenchandler4716 Generally, I usually think if a fantasy focuses more on suspense, thriller or horror, it's a dark fantasy to me. :) The Name of the Wind is both a fantasy and a dark fantasy for this reason, for example.
There are 5 specific elements that are often present in a dark fantasy & I've done a video called "What is DARK FANTASY? [...]" that goes into these 5 elements in detail. 😊💙📚
A pure dark fantasy can be a bit tricky to pin down, since many stories don't go out to "become" a dark fantasy, they just end up being so. I often see fantasy stories that have 1-2 of these 5 dark fantasy elements in them, which would make them "fantasy with dark fantasy elements" :) And if they have 3-5, I'd definitely classify them as "purer dark fantasy". :)
@@ceinwenchandler4716 I love the Underdark and drow too. 😋 They've always added a deep sense of darkness & mystery to DnD that I really like. 💙📚 P.S. you're welcome to sub to Birger Tales, since I focus mostly on Dark Fantasy videos! 😄 I'd love to welcome you into the Tales Tribe! 😃💙📚
P.S. there's also the "Grim Dark" sub-genre, which is even darker than dark fantasy. I'd say dark fantasy focuses more on hope & morally ambigious characters, while grim dark are often without hope entirely and may even have completely ruthless and/or evil main characters.
I personally prefer dark fantasy over grim dark, for these reasons ^_^
I want that glass on Brandon's table.
Me too! Attention Team Dragonsteel make us Cosmere glasses please
If it’s done then GIVE IT TO MEEEEEE I’ll read it on a napkin even, just let me have it
I shall read it on a napkin, or a chair, I'll read it here and there. Give it to me now, or face the row.
How many napkins to fit almost half a million words? I can imagine them all in a pile and having to figure out which order they go in before being able to read it...
Excited to re listen to Michael Kramer and Kate Reading paint me the story all over again from the beginning! This series is my favorite ever, thank you so much for your hard work Brandon (and his team)!
Looking forward to the next installment of Lizbeth making a mess with the papers! IYKYK
I finished Rhythm of War last week, I'm SO ready for Wind and Truth!
Brandon your such a joy. I have only recently gotten into your work, but I cant help but feel your soo genuine to yourself and your craft. You give me so much hope and I cant wait too see more of your stuff.
I am super stoked for Wind and Truth!!!! But also didn’t realize he’d be starting on Mistborn era 3 so soon!! I just finished era2 a week ago and assumed it was time to settle in for a long wait before he’d get back to era 3 but apparently not!!!!
As a League fan, I’m delighted to see Dragonsteel partnering with a Salt League team! Excited to follow along as the season progresses
Dope! I’m 100 pages away from finishing The Well of Ascension. After I’m done with this trilogy I’m starting the stormlite archive. Excited
Very important, don't forget to check out books like Warbreaker in between the big books, helps clear the mind and who knows, you might find some new friends to fight evil with.
Ooh boy you're getting to the good part! When I finished Well of Ascension I only paused long enough to get Hero of Ages off the shelf. You've got some very fun reading ahead 😀
I'm about a third of the way through WOA
As said, If you want to keep up with the overall Cosmere connections, Warbreaker is a reading requirement before Stormlight.
I got to date with the Cosmere at a perfect time. Just at the start of the connectivity, in time for experiencing Wind and Truth at release, and with all the good stuff coming.
Enjoy your video games, Brandon! You've earned it, and a lot have come out since you've been under that rock called SA5.
The scream in the 100% sounds like a Tom and Jerry Cartoon I love it! XDDD
I thought the same thing! I was checking the comments if anyone would say the same thing 😂
Yay. I’m so excited. I can’t wait for tour to start releasing the sample chapters.
Me encanta, lo espero con ansias. Sigo estas actualizaciones desde el 27% y estoy feliz 💙
Congratulations Brandon, it must feel so good to hit this milestone 🎉
That's exciting to hear it's at 100%! Can't wait for December! Will definitely be hunting for that numbered copy.
Oh my glob!!! Wind and Truth is upon us!
Congratulations, Brandon and all of Dragonsteel! 🎉❤🎉❤🎉
Your pace is incredible! Hope you're enjoying some very deserved days off!
Congratulations for the final draft! And I'm eager to see all the new stuff 🎉
YESSS!!!!!!!! Well done Brandon xxxx
BRANDON THANK YOU YOU MAKE MY LIFE A JOY
Love to hear that Brandon is a huge Elden Ring fan
Truly radiant
If you go into the archives on the channel, there's some videos of him playing it and talking about what he likes about them.
No footage of him fighting Malenia sadly, that apparently took him several days of attempts.
Dude take a month. I want the entire cosmere complete as much as anyone but you just went through a gauntlet! Do a vacation that's not a writing retreat! Order extra ice in everything! Go wild!
Agreed.👍
If he takes a month we will have another 2 or 3 secret projects by the end of it.
Yessssss can’t wait to read it
I am sooo happy right now 🎉😊 thank you for doing what you do.❤
So excited, can’t wait to read book 5
I hope you post some more Elden Ring videos! It is so strange and unbelievable to watch someone as busy as you playing Dark Souls games...and in a very masochist way no less (level capping + melee glass cannon builds). Excellent commentary on the boss designs and experiences too.
🎉🎉🎉 So exciting! Thank you for the update, Dragonsteel! Really looking forward to the Sanderlanche of Sanderlanches. :D
Also fun to hear a mini update about the other projects you're thinking of! I look forward to all of those too, and think your priorities are very thought through.
Thanks so much for your dedication, Brandon, and Dragonsteel team!
I am so excited about this book. Brandon Sanderson is so reliable with his deadlines.I have pre ordered the signed copy. I was lucky they hadn't sold out in Canada.
I swear he said "Bread in here" at the beginning
My screaming is coherent, tyvm 🤘🏼❤️🔥🤘🏼
So wild. think im taking release day off. very excited.
I’m so pumped!! Congrats :3
Journey before destination, Radiants.
I am so pumped for the White Sand Prose!
Congratulations!!!
Congratulations on finishing! What an incredible accomplishment that we're all so grateful for.
Bravo and congrats on the monumental achievement of finishing Wind and Truth! December can't come soon enough!
I'm so excited for Era 3!
Thank you for the update, and I hope you enjoy the Elder Ring DLC :)
Dear Brandon, can you PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE make that tshirt available again?? I had to settle for the Bridge 4 shirt on Amazon and it's OK but I want that Shash! Thanks for your consideration :)
Timing is perfect, just finished my re-read of books 1-4. So I vote we forego the painful, long, drawn-out publishing wait, and you list the self-published ebook NOW!! Lol, I can't wait!!!
0:09 my mood right now
I’m so stoked for this.
You're insane. I'm looking forward to this amazing fifth entry into the Stormlight Archive!!
the dude can write more in a year than most humans in a life time... truly amazing... SOOOO EXCITED for book 5!! Lets GOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
time to reread stormlight 1-4!!
Sanderson having never played League of Legends and being excited for the Elden Ring DLC is goals honestly
I love Stormlight, but Mistborn is my favorite. But also, Stormlight is my favorite. Really, it depends on my mood. Whenever the mega crossover happens, I'm going to lock myself away with a week's worth of food and see the world again when I have read the final word of the book. Not really. Probably. Maybe?
Era 3, yay!!!!!
Just finished Era 2 this weekend, so Era 3 cannot come soon enough!
Congratulations!
Woooo! So excited to read #5 in Dec at the con!!
That announcement made some serious waves in the esports space. The crossover with Cosmere fans seems to be 1-to-1 ahah.
Incredibly excited!
Congrats on all the hard work, can't wait to read it in December. I hope Brandon enjoys Elden Ring DLC. Almighty knows he's earned it
welcome to the nacl!!! dragonsteel is exciting as hell
thank u so muchs for this gift :D
Great job Brandon!!!!
Hey Brandon just wanted to say i just started reading mistborn as my first book from you and 5 chapters in and loving it and I hope I can read all your books and be caught up at some point haha KEEP UP THE GREAT WORK!
Dragonsteel league esports team sponsorship was not something I would've ever expected to hear lol, hope brandon enjoys shadow of the erdtree as much as I know I will
Would absolutely love some videos of you playing the Elden Ring DLC similar to what we got with the main game :D
I went from a maybe checking out the stormlight rpg kickstarter to definitely as soon as Brandon mentioned it goes live on my birthday - it's a sign!!
Also, Brandon, do you ever take a break? You deserve one.
Huge congrats! I'm beyond excited. Also I'm pumped to root for your team! Maybe they can get promoted into the pro NA league with the change that was announced today
great news. best get my re-re-re-read started!
Life before death, strength before weakness, LoL before work.
