    Interview: Jan 17th, 2015

    Question

    For the past year I’ve been the administrator for the Stormlight Archive Wiki and any feedback you or Peter could give me is most welcome, no feedback would be fine,-

    Brandon Sanderson

    I go there when I’m looking for, like that, like, I know I wrote something about this, what did I put in the book. Then I’ll go to your wiki and look at it.

    Question

    That’s cool.

    Brandon Sanderson

    I got that habit with the Wheel of Time, because I could find it in the notes, but it always takes longer to go to the notes than to Google and Google doesn’t index my wiki, so I go to yours. I think it’s well done. More stuff about the SA wiki and maybe they’ll link it on Brandon’s website.

    Question

    Could an old [Feruchemist] go and transfer his Coppermind to his star pupil using Hemalurgy?

    Like Deliberate…? Right. Ask me that question after you’ve read a few more Mistborn books.

    Interview: Nov 22nd, 2016

    BYU Bookstore (Paraphrased)

    Question

    If a person with an eidetic memory were to store in a coppermind, would their memories degrade upon tapping?

    Brandon Sanderson

    He said, paraphrased: True perfect memories are disputed by science, but if one did exist (or a magical one as we have seen already) then no, their memories would not degrade, as it's the brain's own failings that cause degradation, not magic.

    Footnote

    Also, his favorite flavor of gelato is lemon.

    Interview: Nov 22nd, 2016

    BYU Bookstore (Paraphrased)

    Question

    I asked why Hoid gave the memory coin to Wax, what his motivation was (since it seemed to cast a more positive light on someone Hoid does not like), and

    Brandon Sanderson

    Brandon said he did it to correct a lie that was being perpetuated.

    Question

    I said that I was still suspicious of Hoid,

    Brandon Sanderson

    to which he said I should be, as those two (Hoid and Kelsier) do not get along. He said that the memory uncovered a truth that Kelsier did not want to be known.
