Well, as everyone has posted, he's a huge nerd and very aware that he's writing steampunk.

Saw the "Spotlight on Brandon Sanderson" panel at SDCC and it was pretty good, and pretty close to filled as well.

- Read some of the prologue to AMoL
- Gave some insight on his next books...2nd and 3rd Stormlight books right after AMoL, then some stuff he's been working on, then an Elantris sequel, then a Alloy of Law sequel(well same characters maybe not sequel).
- Probably old news to this thread, but he wrote like 12 books prior to getting published, and the first 5 books were just practice books, the sixth being Elantris
- He apparently writes novellas on vacations and flights for shits and giggles.

I was gonna get up and ask him if he was going for Asimov's publishing record, but that was too snarky.


edit: He literally says he writes other things to keep himself fresh when working on the big books. He doesn't take breaks. He just writes other things.
