Can you talk about the technical details of the glyphs writing system in The Stormlight Archive?
The glyphs were designed by Isaac Stewart. He is my scribe, artist, and cartographer. He is also the art director at my company. We sat down and I wanted something symmetrical, so actually half of the glyph is repeated. When you read into it, it’s symmetrical, and you can read them by the points where they slant, but you will have to go talk to him about exactly how to do it, because I say “I want a glyph for this” and he designs it. So they are readable and based on Arabic word art.
