Questioner

Have you thought about doing a continuation of Dreamer?

Brandon Sanderson

Occasionally. I haven't found the right thing to do with it yet, though. Dreamer is weird, because it starts off feeling like a Brandon Sanderson story, and a lot of people are like "Woah, I can see a whole world based on this!" And then it goes the horror route, you know, with the kids.

Questioner

I really liked that. I thought it was a nice twist.

Brandon Sanderson

The most horrific thing I could think of was giving the kids who play X-Box too much power over peoples' lives.

Questioner

So any chance of a horror story?

Brandon Sanderson

Yes. I actually have written one I consider horror. A short story. It was in a horror anthology. We're going to publish it with another story *inaudible* [Games Creatures Play anthology]. You'll be able to read it. But--

Questioner

Non-cosmere?

Brandon Sanderson

It's non-cosmere, yeah. It's the most horrifying thing I can - *inaudible* It's not going to read like one until you figure out what's going on. It's not like horror...monster movie horror, you know? 

Questioner

*inaudible*

Brandon Sanderson

Yeah, I mean it's still wacky magic and things like that, but when you realize what's going on. Yeah.

Questioner

Are going to do anything else in that world [of Dreamer]

Brandon Sanderson

Probably not. She [Charlaine Harris] wanted me to write a horror story, and I'd never written one before so I said, "All right, what is the most frightening thing I can think of?" The most frightening thing I could think of was the kids who play Xbox having power over real people’s lives, and that’s where that story came from.
