Brandon Sanderson: A Fallen Icon?
from Living Words Press Hosted by Zachary Larson
For nearly 15 years, I have been captivated by the fantasy worlds of Brandon Sanderson. His books shaped my love for storytelling, magic systems, and the art of writing. As a fellow member of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, I admired him—not just as a writer but as a figure who represented faith-driven creativity on a grand scale. But now, everything has changed.With the release of Wind and Truth, Sanderson has taken a public stance in full support of LGBTQ+ activism, not only in his personal statements but also in his storytelling. This shift has led me to reevaluate everything I once admired about him. What does this mean for his legacy, for faithful readers, and for the future of clean storytelling?In this video, I break down Sanderson’s public statements, the agenda creeping into his books, and why his fall as an icon has reignited my own passion for writing. If you’ve been a fan of Sanderson—or even if you’ve never heard of him before—you won’t want to miss this discussion.🔔 Subscribe to Living Words Press for more deep dives into faith, fiction, and storytelling.📖 Read the full post on Substack: https://livingwordspress.substack.com/p/brandon-sanderson-let-me-down?r=6c2be #BrandonSanderson #WindAndTruth #FaithAndFiction #ChristianFantasy #LDS #WritingCommunity #BookDiscussion
