Interview #971: AMOL Signing Report - Terez, Entry #6

Terez

At this point, Brandon started signing my books. I recorded the conversation while he was doing it, so from here on out it’s transcribed. I always ask for something unique, but this time around bossman insisted the HCFFs should ask for a unique personalization—probably because Brandalization kind of decreases the value of signed books!—so Brandon took it as a matter of course. I asked for Zombie’s infamous love pentagram.

(start transcript)

….you have to draw a pentagram….and then, you know, you can start with Moiraine on one tip, and then just follow it around, right?

Brandon Sanderson

Uh-huh. Okay, yeah, that is…I do remember that. Okay. So…. (draws two lines) Can I even draw a pentagram?

Terez

Now, they go up to the middle…

Brandon Sanderson

Yeah, now they go up like this…

Terez

…right…

Brandon Sanderson

…like that, and then across.

Terez

(laughs) Yes. It’s perfect.

Brandon Sanderson

And then Thom…

Terez

No, nonononono! Because, like, Moiraine connects to Thom here…

Brandon Sanderson

Oh, it goes like that! I see what it is…

Terez

Right, right. Yeah.

Brandon Sanderson

I see.

Terez

And then Thom connects to…

Brandon Sanderson

…to Morgase.

Terez

Right.

Jennifer Liang

Is this like the hook-up quadrilateral?

Terez

It’s a love pentagram. (laughs)

Brandon Sanderson

Okay, and then Morgase is not going to be Tallanvor….

Terez

Gareth…

Brandon Sanderson

Morgase is going to be Gareth Bryne, and then Bryne is going to be Siuan….

Terez

And then…

Brandon Sanderson

Oh, Siuan and Moiraine, pillow-friends! Right, yeah….

Terez

…and then Siuan comes back to Moiraine! Yeah!

Brandon Sanderson

Yeah, yeah, okay.

Terez

It works perfectly.

Jennifer Liang

Yeah, the Wheel of Time is basically one big hook-up chain. (laughter)

Terez

Well, I thought this was special, cause it’s like…it’s not a love triangle; it’s a love pentagram.

Jennifer Liang

Yep.

Brandon Sanderson

Yeah, okay. Again, sorry for my handwriting.

Terez

And then you have to draw a heart.

Brandon Sanderson

(draws heart and sparklies)

Terez

(laughs) That’s great. Now for the questions!

Brandon Sanderson

Alright, now for the questions.

Terez

Alright.
