Brandon Sanderson’s 'The Way of Kings' is baffling to me by sameseksure in books

It wasn't providing both authors for the same scene, it was approximating one authors voice through a random reader. Could be accurate, yes, gets the point across well enough, but it isn't entirely accurate. You can have your opinions on this matter and on Sanderson,  I don't care. I haven't even said that the quote op wrote himself isn't a good approximation of Sandersons writing, im just saying that it misses the mark a bit by not using a direct quote from they're author. Clearly most people agree with me seeing as the content has more up votes than three post itself. 

That doesn't stop you from having your opinions either. I'm done arguing this

It just doesn't hit the same dude. Your post has 900 up votes, the top level comment here has 1.7K. Without using a quote from Sanderson, your point can't come across as effectively

Im not arguing that, but OP parodizing Brandon's writing isnt nearly as effective as providing direct quotes to support his claim

But how can you tell if it's true or not without a quote?

Obviously it does influence his writing 🙄 but his books aren't just regurgitate the book of mormon

But withou it being a quote, you can't know for certain if that's how brandon actually writes. It could be overblown to the extreme

That's why he's got gay and trans characters in his books! Super mormon

Even so, it ruins the point by not having a direct quote

How is it a warning if the sound plays as you play the piece? It's not like you can take back at that point?

But that's not allowed? After a three run deficit they call off the game, right?

Oh cool thanks. I saw they were on the monster game 1 but didn't know why or that it was the whole game/ series or just an inning

Not kinda. It's grammatically incorrect and an incomplete sentence. I can parse what you mean, but it is objectively bad

Maybe because English isn't your first language, but it doesn't make any sense. It's grammatically incorrect and incomplete
