    Interview: Jan 20th, 2015

    Leinton

    Of all the published shardworlds, which one is your favorite to write and which would you want to live on.

    Brandon Sanderson

    One he wants to live on would definitely be Scadrial, because they have running water and electricity. Favorite to write is Roshar. He would not want to live on any of them though because they don't have internet or delivery pizza. (He later stated that delivery pizza would likely be a thing Scadrial would get, but that it would not be delivered via coinshots becaues they were too expensive).

    Interview: Feb 20th, 2015

    Question

    If you could live on any one of the worlds, which one would it be?

    Brandon Sanderson

    If forced to, because I would stay here if I could ‘cause internet, internet’s really cool, mac & cheese, I like mac & cheese, I like instant ramen. But if I were forced I would pick Scadrial, the Mistborn world, because it’s the closest to all of those things, but beyond that it would, post-Catacendre, a very good place to live...

    Question

    If you had to pick one character to have dinner with, who would it be?

    Brandon Sanderson

    I’d pick Sazed. It would not be Kelsier, cause he’s kind of scary, and it would not be Hoid cause he would make fun of me.

    Interview: Oct 9th, 2015

    Question

    Shardblade vs. lightsaber, which one would win in a clash?

    Brandon Sanderson

    Depends on who’s writing it, I or Lucas. If I were writing it, I’d say they bounce off each other.

    Question

    If you were an Epic what would your powers be?

    Brandon Sanderson

    Truthfully it would be something like summoning books out of the air. But if I wanted one I would pick flying.

    Question

    What would happen if the King’s Wit, Wayne, and Mat Cauthon from these last three Wheel of Time books went into a room and locked it?

    Interview: Feb 25th, 2016

    Question

    A lot of your books deal with dealing with mortality. Do you have a contingency author lined up?

    Brandon Sanderson

    I don't have one lined up, I just have good notes. And my assistant knows what authors I like and things like that, it would really just depend on how long I last. Like right now I'd probably ask Brian McClellan to do it, but who knows, he might be too big by...but hopefully I'd last until I'm like 90 and we just need someone to finish like one book.
