  • Introduction to WARBREAKER
    Sanderson/Warbreaker/1 Introduction to WARBREAKER Welcome! My name is Brandon Sanderson. Before anything else, I’d like to thank you for your interest in my books. I hope you enjoy Warbreaker. In case you don’t know, I’m a professional fantasy novelist. My first book, Elantris, was published in some thirteen languages, earned me a Campbell nomination, and got starred reviews in Publisher’s Weekly and the Library Journal. It was also picked by Barnes and Noble editors as the best fantasy or science fiction book of the year. My second book, Mistborn: The Final Empire, is out in paperback, as is the sequel, Mistborn: The Well of Ascension. Book three is out October 14th of this year. I also have a kid’s book Alcatraz versus the Evil Librarians out from Scholastic Press. You can find sample chapters of these books at the end of this file. If you like Warbreaker, I humbly ask that you consider looking into my published works! As many of you already know, I was chosen in December of 2007 to complete Robert Jordan’s epic masterpiece The Wheel of Time. I’m hard at work on the twelfth and final novel in this series, titled A MEMORY OF LIGHT. It should be out sometime in the fall or winter of 2009. Coincidentally, that should be the same year Warbreaker is released. (Currently, it is scheduled for June 2009.) How this Book Came About Warbreaker is something of an experiment for me. For a long time, I’ve wanted to release an e-book on my website.

  • Young, Gifted and Punk: My Mad Days with Rik Mayall June 18, 2014 6.03Am BST
    Young, gifted and punk: my mad days with Rik Mayall June 18, 2014 6.03am BST The untimely death of me old mucker Rik Mayall last week has prompted a plethora of obituaries in the press and on television and radio. However, as someone who “nearly” grew up with Rik at Manchester University in the mid- 1970s (we never quite made the leap to post-adolescence) his premature death has been a devastating personal blow – as it has, I’m sure, to all those who knew him. As the youngest of the 1975 intake – Rik was only 56 years old when he died – his passing not only uncomfortably reminds us all of our own mortality but has invoked the glorious memories of an age of creative experiment and glorious mayhem. As an undergraduate studying Drama at Manchester University, I first met Rik when both housed in the Manchester University Hall’s of Residence at Owen’s Park, Fallowfield. What united us from the off was our love of the absurd, the irreverent and the cheap burgers from the so-called Armpit – the nearby Canadian Charcoal Pit take-away. Also we both had a penchant for pulling faces, putting on silly voices and like many of our generation, quoting large sections of Monty Python sketches, which were seen as de rigeur for “coolness” in the mid- 1970s. He was a fascinating life-force, not least because he could stick the top of his ear into the hole. The living was easy at that time with generous student grants to ease the squalor of student life – or rather to propagate it.

  • MAYALL BONDING (1991) How Rik Mayall Brought 'Drop Dead Fred' to Life
    ARCHIVE- MAYALL BONDING (1991) How Rik Mayall brought 'Drop Dead Fred' to life... Earlier this month comedian Rik Mayall passed away at the age of 56. He was generally regarded as being at the forefront of the wave of ground-breaking, anarchic humour that crashed into the mainstream of the 1980s and 1990s. In 1991, Rik Mayall went to America. or, in many ways, America came to him. Some predicted a transatlantic transplant and dazzling US career. However Drop Dead Fred turned out to be one of the comedian's very few forays across the Big Pond. It's a film that divided critics, but was arguablyan inspired idea, well presented and a great vehicle for Mayall. When Rik attended a screening of the film, just prior to its original UK release, he sat down to talk about how the project had evolved... Confession time. When I went to see the special sneak preview of Rik Mayall's new film, I actually walked straight past the actor/comedian without realising. Perhaps I can be excused that faux pas, by revealing that he had longish blond hair, was dressed in a smart black casual suit and carrying what looked like an executive satchel. Here was a man who could have just flown in from a business meeting in LA and be about to ask everyone to 'do lunch sometime'. Could it be ... had the Young One gone yuppie? - Nah! The problem is, of course, that we all expect Rik Mayall to be the eternal rebel he has so often appeared as.

Helen Lederer before purchasing it in order to gage whether or not it would be worth my time, and all praised Finger Food. Helen Lederer: 0 of 0 people found the following review helpful. One of the Few Quick Reads Made in 2012, But a Bit of an Average StoryBy James N SimpsonThe Quick Reads series of books aim is to increase literacy levels by encouraging those who don't like to read beyond magazines and comic books to try fiction through cheap priced short story length fiction and nonfiction. Titles sold off the rack for only a couple of pounds, in fact in 2013 it's down to one pound. Although there were quite a few titles in former years, 2012 (which Finger Food was a part of) saw the beginning of a drastic decline in the number of books released under this UK initiative, a decline which has continued into 2013 with even less. Possibly due to the bad economic landscape in the UK, or maybe due to the vast amount of cheap short stories available on Kindle, who knows. So firstly I would point out it is commendable that actress Helen Lederer has submitted to a hopefully not, but by the looks of things dying but worthy cause with her short fiction story Finger Food.However as much as doing a good deed is worthy of praise, I keep that and the rating of a book separate.
