I’ve seen in your answers to previous questions that you are always open to changing aspects of your story so long as it’s not already written in another book, or more importantly so that it doesn’t contradict what the reader already knows.

That being said, how much of the Cosmere and its story would you say you already have a plan for? For example, do you more or less already know how each world and story ties into one another, or is that something that changes as you write? Given that there seem to be some constants in this universe (the number of shards, etc.), is there an end to these stories as a whole, or is it an ever-expanding universe?

Things do change as I evolve as a writer. There is an end to this story. Dragonsteel-Kings- Mistbornare all fairly well planned out, but I must allow myself flexibility.
