It's the Year of Sanderson! The State of the Sanderson has arrived, and The Sandersonian Institute of Cosmere Studies has lots to say about it! Every year, typically on Koloss Head-Munching Day (which just coincidentally happens to fall on Brandon's birthday, December 19th), Brandon Sanderson releases the annual State of the Sanderson post. Over the years, it's grown into a large, greatly anticipated event for those in the Cosmere fan community. While it was delayed a few days as the Dragonsteel team got everything organized (because there was a lot to get organized!), it's now been released. So join Bill, Jordan, and Amy as they talk about Brandon's work over the past year, his plans for the next year, their speculations on some of the things Brandon is still keeping under wraps, and yes, we do devote a good portion of time to the whole audiobook situation. You know the one we're talking about. A lot of you may be looking forward to a discussion of Secret Project #1. So are we! We'll be talking about that one in just a couple weeks! ___ This episode's show notes can be found here: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1sB9GAVvc_ts566vlS053VEEtb11ZBaT7JkLvK123bw0/edit?usp=sharing ___ You can support The Sandersonian Institute of Cosmere Studies by becoming a Patron at http://www.patreon.com/cosmerestudies SICS patrons make the show possible and gain access to additional content and early access to bonus episodes. ___ Want some SICS merch?
