Brandon Sanderson teaching a class on SF/Fantasy writing. This is lesson 1 and if I ever get the ability to watch them all you damned well bet I'm going to watch/take it. If you watch it on YouTube they are all linked!!

If you're not already listening to it & want to hear more Brandon Sanderson talking about writing I highly recommend writing excuses.

Every time I remember the original, I keep thinking it was Kevin West in the role, and not Sean Whalen.

Well, it's pretty darn close. Now, if it were hot guys and PUPPIES, there'd need to be a cleanup in aisle 5.

And if it were hot Marvel guys and puppies, I'd be buying 5 copies.
