BRANDON SANDERSON NEWSLETTER

A NOTE FROM BRANDON

Greetings!  Welcome to the newsletter for Summer 2007.  You're getting this because you signed up for it on my website.  If you don't want to get these in the future, just reply to it and let us know.

There's a lot going on in my life, and much is covered below.  Many of you may know I got married last year, and my wonderful wife is finding a way to help out by taking over newsletter duties.  There will still be a note from me in each of these, but she'll be doing the rest of the work.  Hopefully, this will mean I get them out more often than

once a year!

Two things I want to mention of particular note for those of you in the Utah area.  First off, have a look at the Harry Potter signing below.  Since I want a copy of book seven myself, I figured I might as well do a signing that evening.  I'll be at the Borders in Provo (at the shops at Riverwoods) from about 11-1.  (Yes, in the morning.)

I'll be doing readings, chatting with people, and hopefully will make waiting for HP to finally come out a more enjoyable experience.  If you are planning on getting a book that night, come see me!  I'll have hardback copies of both Elantris and Mistborn for your collection.

The other thing that is really important is the Mistborn 2 pre-release.  Last year, the MB 1 pre-release was a huge event--with hundreds of people attending--and I'd sure like to make this one equally successful.  If you live in Utah, give the Waldenbooks a call and have them reserve you a copy.  (It doesn't cost anything; we just want a good count of how many to order.)  I will be bringing prizes to give away, including things like draft versions of my books and other collector's items.  Don't miss it!  We'll be doing the official signing on August 18th (Saturday) from 6-8 at the Waldenbooks in the Provo Towne Centre Mall.  Everyone who calls and reserves a copy gets a numbered edition!  It's the only way to get one!

CAMPBELL AWARD NOMINATION

Brandon was nominated again this year for the John W. Campbell Best New Writer Award. Other eligible authors include Scott Lynch for LIES OF LOCK LAMORIA, Sarah Monette, author of MELUSINE, short story writer Lawrence M. Schoen, and Naomi Novik with HIS MAGESTY'S DRAGON. The Campbell will be presented at The 65th World Science Fiction Convention held August 30th - September 3rd, 2007 in Yokohama, Japan.

NEW BUSINESS

Many have found that incorporating is a good way to deal with the sometimes-chaotic business of being a self-employed author. For this reason, we recently created an S-corp, which is why readers may begin to see the name DRAGONSTEEL ENTERTAINMENT associated with the works of Brandon Sanderson.

BABY BOY

Brandon and his wife are expecting a baby boy, due on November 2nd. Since he will be the first grandchild for Brandon's parents, and the 2nd grandson for Emily's parents, (who have 8 granddaughters) the poor kid is going to be spoiled rotten!

UPCOMING EVENTS

7/20/07 10PM    Borders (Riverwoods-4801 N University Ave Provo, UT)
