Brandon Sanderson is THE dominant figure in the modern fantasy literature genre!
He is a beacon and inspiring by being one of the most succesful writers in our age and while also having high functioning down syndrome

Brandon Sanderson humbly replies to the Wired article. Is this man not the best?

Does there exist a good series (like actually good) with more than five books in it? I feel like I haven’t heard of anything longer than a trilogy being an exceptional, lasting installment to the literary canon. Are all these 12-book series just cash grabs? Do they ever justify the use of that many books? Am I just retarded and filtered? This shit is ridiculous man, the other day I overheard my housemate gauging the quality of one of picrel’s series off of the total word count.

It's based and correct.

You made this thread earlier, king.

Is this man writing the new bible? I am reading third book in the stormlight archives and he's literally writing kind of fantasy that most mythologies tend to fall in to some extent. Bigger then life in every sense. He's describing various virtues in depth, explains each of his point through various stories then goes in depth as to how to follow these ideals correctly. Finally he shows how this would benefit one and everyone. Is this okay?

This guy was a missionary for Mormon church and seems like to really believe what's he's writing. I've seen him talk about how he decided to write even if he never succeeded. He claims he'd been writing for a long time at that point and wasn't getting anywhere. But somehow it felt right to write even if he was unsuccessful. First ideal of his religion seems to be "Life before death, strength before weakness, journey before destination." It is one of more discussed ideas so far. And what seems interesting to me is how it's the first one and it is shared across hierarchies as it is there to safeguard rest of the ideals just like the first amendment.

On top of this he redefines what we consider reality like many eastern religions. He has lived in Asia if I'm remembering correctly. Quantum physics is part of his magic. Does he think he's a prophet or is it just me?
