I’m going to be using this as my running commentary for Wind and Truth as I read. BEWARE OF SPOILERS. I will tag each comment with a warning. #fantasy #books #stormlight
#WindandTruth SPOILERS (mild)

Adolin’s anger with Dalinar, while valid, seems a bit exaggerated from the last book, and it’s making me wonder if Odium is influencing him. If Adolin is going to end up being his champion. 😬
DONT DO IT BRANDON!

WaT SPOILERS (small one)

Syl ranks among some of the most funny cosmere characters.

“… Chull head,” The woman finally said.
“Chull head,” Syl replied.
“Down… there.”
“Down there.”

“I feed it grass sometimes.”

“Life breaks us,” said Dalinar, “Then we fill the cracks with something stronger.”

😭
This book is going to destroy me, I just know it.

#WindandTruth SPOILERS!!!!

When Shallan draws Kelek, he asks about her ability to see possible futures of people. How related do we think this is to a Mistborn burning Malatium???

I need ANSWERS. I get the feeling there are going to be so many in this book, but this one is cross-cosmere

Wind and Truth SPOILER WARNING:
No for real don’t even look if you don’t want to be spoiled
*************
Prologue: “A herald has died” WHAT??? Does that mean that the theory about Chanarach being Shallan’s mother is all but confirmed?????

One book I’m surprised isn’t on choice awards but definitely deserves a spot!

ML Wang’s Blood Over Bright Haven was one of my favorite reads this year. It masterfully handled a complex magic system and phenomenal characters in a unique society.

ML Wang is quickly becoming an auto-buy for me

We're only halfway through Native American Heritage Month, so there's still plenty of time for you to read one of our many titles by and about indigenous people, including @sgj.bsky.social, @morgantalty.bsky.social, Joy Harjo, and Ned Blackhawk. Not that you shouldn't be doing that every month.

The number one advice any & every writing professional can & will give you is this:

DO NOT BE AFRAID TO SUCK.

You have spent years reading books, watching movies & TV, developing taste to know good from bad. NO ONE GETS TO READ YOUR WRITING UNTIL YOU LET THEM. Trust your taste & write fearlessly.

Not-so-patiently waiting to see if I am lucky enough to get an ARC for Wind and Truth 😬

Anyone who wants to try for it, head over to Sanderson’s TT page and check the rules. You just have to comment “Wind and Truth Hype!” On any ARC related posts and follow Sando and Tor

Good luck to everyone 😁
