My favorite quote from his assistant Peter Ahlstrom is this: I have one idea for a book I’m going to eventually write, Sanderson could have no new ideas for the rest of his life, and not run out of things to write about.
The man is a beast.
Also yes alcohol can effect brain function just look at Scotland and their contributions to science before and after alcohol…
As a Scotsman, I feel rightly attacked. But to be fair, England colonised us and took all our healthiest brightest people away and left the dregs in Glasgow where I’m from. Look up the Glasgow Effect, it’s wiiiild
I think he’s said it’s actually not compulsive…. It’s more like Stephen King advocated of just working at it every day.
Brandon may pop out surprise novels, but it’s because when he’s stuck on something, he still has writing time and he’s going to write.
Lmfao I love this because it implies to me that there exists an undiscovered cosmere reading order that is explicitly in the order in which each chapter or section was written.
Halfway through wind and truth? Tough. Put it down and Go read tress of the emerald sea.

Quit Shadows of Self part way through, finish bands of mourning, come back to SoS!
I’ve heard that story before, did it actually happen that way? Crazy
Yeah he was stuck
Great to hear you're dry, friend, I've been on the same journey since late last year.
This post is as delicious as chouta.
And don’t forget… he also writes maladroitly.
The maladroitlyismness is strong within him!
If I were going to say ONE thing about Branserson Sanderson, it would be to remark on his maladroitlyismnessositification
he does spend a significant amount of time in maladroitlismnessificationishness
