Which Magic System Would You Use?
Which magic system of yours would you be most inclined to use including channeling? Probably Feruchemy. The memorization potential would help me be a better writer.

Does Cadsuane count? (J/K). I love you Cads. Really, don’t beat me up.) I have characters that didn’t bloom like I wanted. Parlin in WARBREAKER still itches at me. Could have been done better. I always wished I could give Ham more time in Mistborn. But I can’t think of…
There’s a piece of me in every one of them, but I’m not really like any of them. People who know me well say that Alcatraz’s humor reminds them of my humor (which is different from Lightsong’s or Kelsier’s humor, which are different from mine). Elend, in the original Mistborn…
At one point I would have made it a tie between Lightsong and Vin, but I’ve written so many more characters now that asking me to choose is pretty much impossible. No, Really. Well, I guess it depends on what you mean by favorite. A lot of people ask me…
Tough call. Right now, Warbreaker is the best written–though The Gathering Storm is better, I think. I think that Way of Kings will be awesome too. But you didn’t ask for the best, you asked for my favorite. In that case, I’d probably have to say Elantris, as it was…
What is your favorite food? Mac and Cheese. I also love Popcorn for snacking. Which Is Your Favorite Pratchett Novel And Why? The Truth is my favorite. As a writer, and one who likes to explore the nature of the truth in his works, a novel that deals with someone trying…
Yeah, yeah. It’s actually a little embarrassing. I play Magic the Gathering, which is kind of the nerdiest game ever invented. I do role play a little bit, but Magic is probably my biggest hobby. I actually decided a few years back that I needed a hobby. I had to…
Gattaca. The Fifth Element, actually, is up there too. The Prisoner of Azkaban movie. Empire Strikes Back. Sneakers. Jackie Chan’s Operation Condor. (I know, I know.) The Emperor’s New Groove. Star Trek: First Contact. To be honest, that’s probably not a great list. Those are the movies I watch over…
Who are your favorite characters of all time? Man, I’m bad at answering questions like this. Okay, male is probably Jean Valjean. Female…urg… Moiraine, maybe? Sioned from Dragon Prince is pretty awesome too. Double urg. I don’t know. Jenny from Dragonsbane has long been one of my favorites, so maybe…
Right now, Pratchett is my favorite living author (Though he has tragically died since I wrote this response). Jordan was my favorite for a long, long time. I’d add the original three ladies–McCaffrey, Rawn, and Hambly–to the list as well, as they were the ones to get me into this…
