I think the only question is does the fat man die before Words are Winds is published. There's no chance that he will live to see the end of the TV- or book series.

He's only 65 right now. If he somehow still takes 1-2 years to finish WOW and then around 5-7 years for ADOS he'll be 74. I think he'll live, I'm more afraid of him losing interest in the series.

If you think that, along the way, you're not going to fail... you're blind.

There's no one I've ever met, no matter how successful they are, who hasn't said they had their failures along the way.

Maybe someone should hit him with a van, then he can be inspired to crank something out.

I think the problem lies in him cranking something out instead of writing.

I mean, it’s hard to blame him, you know? He was writing to make a living, he got a bit over his head and now he’s 65 years old and he just wants to chill instead of writing nerd porn. Fair enough.

Tbh I'd kill myself if I was forced to write 2000+ pages of anything.

Been a while since I ventured here, but this review on Goodreads of GOB had me cackling:

quote:

There is nothing good about this book; it's amazing, but there's nothing good. I don't feel like writing a giant review for what was a porn parody of Game of Thrones; needless to say, there's some weirdly well written parts, some downright embarrassing jokes, and I finally got a use for the highlight function in my kindle, so I will always have access to some of the most gross, awful, hilariously written pieces of smut I've ever seen in my life.

The guy who hit Stephen-kun died on King's 53rd birthday. Probably was a coincidence. Ka is a wheel and all.

Anyone who strikes GRRM will probably get some kind of gypsy curse as well. You'll end up writing 10+ thousand words that would put Tolkien to shame. All published as greentext and read only by a cult of channers who alternate between masturbating to it and mocking it incessantly.

poo poo, then let's have GRRM run over an old gypsy lady. Someone needs to bite the bullet and fellate that dude while he's driving, then he can be cursed thiiiiiinner and all of our concerns about his fatness killing him will disappear!

In GRRM's sprawling New Mexico ski lodge he sits at a broad desk chewing torn strips of paper. The manuscript piled next to his Brother dot matrix printer is dwindling fast. His face, once full as the Taos moon, droops gaunt between his suspenders, whiskers dangling where two fine fat breasts once nestled sweatily.

Parris walks into the study and says brightly, "get a lot written today?"

Martin chews, swallows, and bares his ink-stained teeth in a rictus grin.

I guess it depends entirely on whether or not it being found by someone is a plot point in the future. It won't reveal anything if it is, and if it is, we're not going to find out because we all know how this series ends.

Postponed implies it had a projected release date in the first place. You know better.
