My girlfriend and I both enjoy your books immensely, so well done for that! She would like to know if you laugh as much as she does when you are writing your Lightbringer books. As you have no knowledge of the quantity of laughs that she was riddled with I greatly doubt you can give an accurate answer, but please try. She would like to know. Much love!

Brent Weeks Oh, I didn't know we were going into the embarrassing questions! Yes, I do laugh at my own jokes. Then of course, I often scowl, change the word order to see if it makes it funnier, scowl again, and try three more times. I also occasionally cackle when I've pulled something particularly cruel and/or clever. This is why I can't write in coffee shops.

Hello Brent, Just got into your books recently through Graphic Audio. First of all, what an amazing series. I am currently listening through broken eye and the series just keeps getting better. My question is: do you feel the Goodreads "Best books of 2014" is a popularity contest and not really a vote based on content? I felt ur book was the best fantasy of the year

I got introduced to your books through the Night Angel Trilogy, and have been thoroughly enjoying the Lightbringer Series, breathlessly awaiting the Broken Eye. My question is, my car has a strange vibration/rattling noise at low rpm's. Is this simply a loose muffler, or is it indicative of a greater mechanical problem? Thanks.

Patrick Lechner asked Brent Weeks:

I get my water from a well out here in the country and am worried about it drying up during the summer. It's rather deep about 120ft aquifer, but still... any advice you can offer on how to delay or prevent the well from drying up?
