I’ve seen people talk about actors and artists that had a terrible time.
My own would be Anne Rice. She wrote Interview with the Vampire after her young daughter died of Leukemia. Then her husband suddenly died of a brain hemorrhage. I suspect her Christian, anti-fanfic phase was a result of mental illness and manipulation from the publishers, although I don’t think she ever apologized.
Nah, I read Elantris, and the first Mistborn trilogy, and I just sorta didn’t feel like continuing. I hear Stormlight Archives is supposed to be his top tier stuff, though.
Yeah elantris is his first ever books and is understandably rough. Mistborn was fine but eh to me. Stormlight really was much better than them imo.
