This page lists all of Brandon Sanderson's works, written or unwritten, that have not been published. Some of these are written novels that have been "trunked", some of which have been re-written or cannibalized from. Some are ideas Brandon has talked about briefly but it is unknown if they will ever actually be written. The remainder are forthcoming works that, while unwritten, will come out eventually.
A list of those works that have been published can be found in the Bibliography article.

Potential Works
These are projects that Brandon has mentioned as possibilities but there are no firm plans in place.
- 1940's Mistborn
- Potentially more short adventures set before the second trilogy.[6]
- Near-future Mistborn
- Potentially more adventures set between the second and third trilogies.[20]

- Zeek Harbringer, Destroyer of Worlds
- Middle grade scifi humor, potentially a follow-up to the Alcatraz series.[22] About a young man who whenever he visits a planet, the planet blows up shortly after for various reasons (such as a nuclear catastrophe). Each book would be set on a different world and tell the story of how it blows up.[21]
- The King's Necromancer[7]
"Trunked" Novels
These are works that are unlikely to ever be published either because elements have been co-opted for use in other books (as with Mythwalker and Aether of Night) or because the book has been re-written from scratch (as with White Sand Prime and The Way of Kings Prime).
- White Sand Prime
- Brandon's first novel, later re-written as White Sand (prose).[22]
- Star's End
- Brandon's second novel, a short alien-relations/sci-fi story.[22]
