General thread to complain about GRRM until he releases WoW Tweets like this are just an asshole thing to do George RR Martin @GRRMspeaking 3m3 minutes ago Coming... http://goo.gl/KORNhP
This plus the Recent one that mentions meeting with the publisher/editor has me hopeful that the book drops early 2016. Not holding my breath but it seems plausible.
At this point I can only hope that once the show ends and shows everyone how it ends, that everyone refuses to buy the books. Won't happen but a man can dream.
Lol @NFL: Will #RevisIsland pop up in the next #GoT title crawl? No. But George RR Martin was at @nyjets camp. : @KMart_LI http://t.co/eAemF6BU4X
I wish I had a job where millions have depended on me for YEARS and I could just publicly not do said job with no fucks given - and still have an army of fans. For the record, I don't think he's an asshole. I just think him doing things other than "son of kong" (like writing thousands of words about puppies) is distasteful & hard for me to swallow. But he has the right to do whatever he wants.
in 1981 GRRM said "If I were really cynical I would start some medieval sword and sorcery thing, say it's a trilogy, then keep writing it for the rest of my life"
He should just do shit like that for the rest of his life The Winds of Winter October 1, 2022 We finally have a date for something many of you have looked forward to for ages. And it's right around the corner on October 5. The weatherman has predicted our first cold snap of the season will be rolling in.
I genuinely don’t feel bad for him at this point. He’s wrote himself into a corner, wants no help, antagonizes what fans are left and seems disinterested in finishing his magnum opus, while he continues to bounce from project to project while raking in cash.
I feel like he wants to finish and cannot. He probably tries to occupy his mind with other things to keep his sanity. I kinda do feel sorry for him.
He was somehow involved with the development of the TV series Dark Winds, which premiered a couple of weeks ago. I’m not sure why he was involved since he had nothing to do with the Joe Leaphorn/Jim Chee books, all by Tony Hillerman.
Tonight I watched the “Finding Your Roots” episode featuring GRRM. GRRM’s beloved grandmother was a bright spot in his youth. He wanted to find out more about her husband, his grandfather Giorgio, an immigrant from Italy who changed his last name to Martin. Little was known about him except that he was a villain who left GRRM’s beloved grandmother and had a 2nd family while still married to her. As it turns out GRRM has no Italian DNA and his grandfather was an Ashkenazi Jew. So his beloved grandmother had actually had an affair and was the first villain. It was odd to feel sorry for him as he was visibly struggling to process this info, yet, it was a bit satisfying watching him struggle.
