Try the fun stuff:
- Put baskets on people's head in a room (or buckets), steal their stuff, remove buckets, then laugh as they have no idea.
- Get married and buy a house...then you can feel like it's real life. I like finding my wife from time to time and asking her to give me money...
I like dragons.
Just thought I'd leave that here.
Also, read that line in the voice of the I like turtles kid. If you have no idea what I'm talking about, I apologize.
I've brought it up here a lot in the past. Read it through right around the release date. Great novel. Some thoughts...
* As he is Sanderson, he's allowed to release a number 1 of 12 series with 1000 words. Budding authors, don't expect this. You won't be allowed.

The sadness comes with realization that after The Hobbit, that's hit...no more big-screen for Middle Earth. I highly doubt they'll do anything with those other texts from the Tolkien clan. I can't wait to see these. I try to keep up with the new articles and info about the project as it pops up...
