We laugh now, but When Sanderson releases "The Cube", a one million word epic sci-fi thriller about a mysterious cube from another galaxy, he will have the last laugh

"Especially if they're named Joe. They all know each other." My university actually has the "Council of Matt's," which is a group chat containing everyone at the university named Matt. Several hundred members.

My two favorite authors! They have so much charisma together

I think my favorite part about Fablehaven is that it's a kid's book and more happy and light with the darker undertones. It's sort of like when kid's movies have jokes for adults. The happy makes it more satisfying and shocking when something terrible happens. Like Kendra getting kidnapped, Gavin swallowing people whole, etc.

I could write trilogy about Brandons internal struggle with his water cap

"…finished Words of Radiance and immediately started going through withdrawal." Oh gosh, this is so true…

"As soon as you include something weird in your story, it's ours now" I truly love that about fantasy - it's regular stories but _spicey_

"Gandalf (he's kind of like the dog I guess)" im here for this character analysis

Quite an experience for me. I read several of Sanderson books but, I never read Mull. Seeing them speaking is motivating me more to write.

Mistborn needs to be made into a movie. :D

I feel bad for Mull, he barely got any questions! That would be disheartening.

“Wow it’s like we’re celebrities or something” No, Brandon Sanderson, you’re just one of the best authors in modern fantasy. Oh wait...

I watched this intermittently while writing today and got 2000 words! Freak yeah. And we know how Sanderson's to-do list turned out. He ended up writing Shadows of Self before almost everything else haha.

When he said the elf princess I thought he was making a joke about Legolas

A 36 book arc across 6 worlds and they're all interconnected!!! wow

"Well, [in fantasy] I can do anything I can do in any other genre, plus I can have dragons" Does Sanderson even have dragons in his stories, though?

My kids and I LOVE Mull!

"How do you create your characters?" Mull: I like to come up with a defining characteristic for them first. Sanderson: Like a backpack! Me: A cereal box!!

This is my favourite writer chat/panel so far; such natural enthusiasm and good vibes between these two and plus they are so deep in their craft - very energising to watch

With that up coming book list by Sanderson, you have just made my next few years.

Never heard of Mull now I have to look him up

This was awesome. Thanks for sharing!

Lol, I wonder what it would be like to connect to my mother via Gollum... mind explosions.

The " Mundanes" is something that the non magic people from Xanth are called. It's been a long time since I have heard that. Thanks guys.

They both seem like cool dudes

화이팅!

Great stuff! Please tell me you have the readings somewhere as well? ;P

Well Mull may not be wearing the shirt he wore on Thursday but he is wearing the shirt Sanderson wore in this one: kzfaq.info/get/bejne/jb59dLZ-293VhZs.html

Why are they so excited? I guess its the power of the brand-on

does sanderson actually have any books with dragons?

Can we just talk about how Brandon mull looks extremely bored unless he’s talking himslf

Damn, Mull is just totally lost in his imagination for most of this… 😅

My fav comment I know your not Stephen king

That comment Sanderson made about The Rithmatist sequel didn't age well. Afaik, he still hasn't finished it and has released like 10 novels since this con in 2014.

I loved mistborn and its world but allomancy was boring as hell
