Fire Arcadia
I met Brandon today in York, UK. You will soon be able to see a picture on twitter of the cookie I have him. Since I knew it was thanksgiving, it was a thanksgiving-themed cookie.
After getting books signed, I asked him a few questions, listed below as best I can remember them.

FIRE ARCADIA
Have we seen a Roshar native in The Way of Kings who can use Lightweaving?
BRANDON SANDERSON
Yes, we have seen someone who has potential.

He seemed to be trying to say that they didn't know that they can use it.

Fire Arcadia
Can you tell me something about the Cosmere that you haven't told anyone before?
Brandon Sanderson
There are inhabited planets in the cosmere that don't have any Shards there. There may be inhabited planets that only have a Splinter of a Shard. There are 10 core cosmere planets, which tell the overarching story of the cosmere.
FIRE ARCADIA
Are all the Cosmere books so far set on these 10 core worlds?
BRANDON SANDERSON
Yes.
FIRE ARCADIA
Are there any of the 10 core worlds without a Shard?
BRANDON SANDERSON
All 10 core worlds have significant Shardic influence.
