Hi Brandon!

You’re pretty well known for your more conservative approach to sex in your writing, which is very unusual in the fantasy genre. Was this a conscious decision of yours, or is it just a natural consequence of your writing style?

Brandon Sanderson (Reddit)

A little of this, a little of that. I’m glad that the genre is big enough to accommodate a large variety of writing styles. Personally, I’m fond of the old-school classics of film and literature who, in this area, seemed to be able to get so much more across while showing so much less.

I try to write my books in such a way that if you want to go further in your mind, you know which characters are most likely getting it on. But if that’s not your thing, you can leave it out.
