Brandon Sanderson

Wikipedia has an article on Brandon Sanderson, who has been chosen to complete The Wheel of Time since Robert Jordan's passing. This page is for information not suited to a general encyclopedia, such as correspondence and other fan-related information.
==Searchable Database of ALL Plot-related WoT Quotes==
Organized by category and linked to original sources, including Brandon Sanderson quotes:
Theoryland Interview Database
==Interviews, Signing Reports, Blog Posts, etc.==
Only interviews etc. with WoT-related information are included. For up-to-date information, follow Brandon on his blog, on Twitter or on Facebook. For the sake of keeping all post-RJ interviews in one place, some interviews with Team Jordan - Harriet McDougal, Maria Simons, and Alan Romanczuk - will be included here because they are so often inseparable from Brandon's interviews (with some exceptions), just as Harriet quotes are often found in RJ interviews.
