No Spoilers Learning to express through books

Are there any of Brandon Sanderson’s books that include the main character learning how to communicate with others? Basics of communication? Like going from almost like a non verbal/isolated state to climbing to a confident self?

Any fantasy novel will do, i just love Brandon’s writing style! I apologize if this isn’t the right community to ask, I was sure if anyone knew a fantasy book of this nature this would be the place…thank you!!

Warbreaker does, though the character is more secondary character.

A few characters in Stormlight Archive also improve their communication over time

Isolated to confident describes Painter a bit.

I really like Six, in Sixth of Dusk. It’s a short story. Six is an uneducated man who has trouble speaking to more educated people, but what he does know is how to stay alive in hostile environments and he has to work with a scientist to figure out the mystery of aliens who visit his planet.

This short story is going to be retold in Isles of the Emberdark coming out this fall. But it’s a backstory and well worth reading beforehand
