Interview #541: Chat with Brandon Sanderson, Entry #10

Erik Holmes

Sup Brandon.

Brandon Sanderson

Hey, Erik. How’s California?

ERIK HOLMES

It’s not too bad, just been going to the beach (a LOT—my wifes a surfergirl) and trying to get my flippin book done. Brandon/Howard, do you guys try to get all of the local authors on Writing Excuses? The published ones that is.

HOWARD TAYLER

Local authors are like Pokemon. We have to catch them all.

BRANDON SANDERSON

Honestly, we don’t have much trouble. Authors like to talk. (See: This conversation.) Give them a platform, and most will talk. Particularly on a podcast with a lot of listeners.

ERIK HOLMES

My buddy lives in Linden and just signed a big deal with S&S for a YA speculative fiction book. But the guy’s a hermit and doesn’t know any of the local people.

HOWARD TAYLER

Get him out to LTUE. We don’t bite very hard.

ERIK HOLMES

Yeah I’ve been telling him that he should go. His series is supposed to fill the slot left by the Spiderwick Chronicles.

BRANDON SANDERSON

We’d love to have him on.
