    Interview: Apr 24th, 2016

    Question

    So I know that basically Wax and Wayne are basically 1.5, has it turned into 2?

    Brandon Sanderson

    I wish I had called it 1.5. We just have to call it Era 2 now for consistently and clarity sake. If I’d called it 1.5 from the beginning I would have liked that to prevent slips of the tongue myself. If I called the other one Era 2 (meaning 3), I’ve thought of it like that so long it happens. Now we just have to live with it.

    Interview: Feb 17th, 2016

    Question

    I listen to your podcast, Writing Excuses, and you’ve been this year breaking down stories into different parts. Was Bands of Mourning was your attempt to write a pulp novel?

    Brandon Sanderson

    Actually, all of the Wax and Wayne books are a harkening back to classic serials of old novels. It’s interesting looking back at that. I kind of pitched those books to myself as Mistborn the television show, or the action serial. The other ones were the epic fantasy, these were the action serials, and I did try to kind of vary the genre. The first one is straight up detective novel, the second one’s a psychological thriller, and the third one is classic serial adventure story. That was very intentional. It was me trying to take different tones and mash them up with different stories and see what comes out.

    Interview: Feb 17th, 2016

    Question

    So I just finished The Bands of Mourning, which was my favorite out of that series. Did you know when you were writing Alloy of Law how you were going to link this to the original, with the kandra, the bands of the Lord Ruler...

    Brandon Sanderson

    Yeah the kandra were seeded, MeLaan you can go and look back in the original three. Like I’m going to use her in the next series, for sure. Now what I usually do is when I’m starting a series, and I did this for this one, is I will write the first book in the series. So I did this with Steelheart, I did this with the original Mistborn, I did this with Alloy of Law. I write the first book, I sit down, and say “Okay, what worked about that, what can I expand upon” and then I outline the series with those characters and then go back and revise the first one to match and then I release the first one. Does that make sense?

    Question

    Yeah.

    Brandon Sanderson

    So not everything do I know writing the first one but by the time I’m through the revisions I usually do.

    Question

    When are we going to see Ironeyes again?

    Brandon Sanderson

    He will probably make an appearance in The Lost Metal. I’m not sure he will be back from where he is in time.
