He learned from GRRM. and as much as I hate both of them for their work ethic I'd probably do the same considering the state of everything in the world.

The prologue was something he released before the charity 300k thing. The charity thing was for the first chapter!

Just clarifying since it can be ambiguously read.

Dude, Rothfuss has had this trouble since 2007.

Nah. He totally buys into his own hype that he constantly blows up his own rear end.

I still want to know what the hell happened that killed the show and the movie. Is Rothfuss equally as lazy there as he is with the third book? ... Yeah, probably.

"Insane Russian nesting doll structure of a book" did LMM even read the book? It's a basic-rear end flashback.

I don't think he's having trouble, I just think he doesn't care. Though ive followed the whole star citizen/Elon promises/nft stuff so none of this feels abnormal to me.

Hes getting money by doing nothing but paying lip service to devout losers. I applaud him. gently caress elong and nfts tho

I came here cause I heard about his whole charity fraud. I can't believe it's not brought up more. Thread should definitely stay, and the whole saga should be detailed.

Like gently caress this guy, seriously. 30 seconds in on a video from just 2 months ago is enough to see he's full of poo poo.

If you want to see a good example of "Lying Headlines", peep this:

https://winteriscoming.net/2022/08/24/new-doors-of-stone-rumor-the-book-is-in-editing-and-has-a-release-date/

The 'rumor' is that Mercedes Lackey said it was, but it turns out she was just referring to A Slow Regard. So even though there is no such rumor, well... winteriscoming is there to make poo poo up!

I wish I had the ability to not feel shame like GRRM and Rothfuss. I'd probably be rich then though

He's a piece of poo poo.

He learned from GRRM. Except Rothfuss can say mental illness and get a poo poo ton of bonus points, GRRMs ego won't allow him to show any weakness like that.

The book will come out before Winds of Winter, Star Citizen, and the Tesla Bot.

This thread needs to be here so we can remind ourselves and inform others how hes taken advantage of charity then cried like a lifetime bitch about it so he wouldn't get in trouble.

Probably spending all his time with lawyers making sure he doesn't get piledriven for his charity scam

It's amazing.. he just has to send out a 3 minute message once a year crying about how hard life is and all is good.

He never seems to get that its not really about entitlement or lack of empathy for mental illness.

It the lying, Pat. Its the lying people are mad about. People are mad that you lied about the book being done and you lied about the chapter being released etc.

I'm pretty sure he gets it, just like GRRM. You just can't say you aren't doing any work and you're golden. Tesla/Star Citizen etc model.

Has there ever been a montage of Rothfuss webcam cries over the last 10 years that definitely, totally didn't make him mad?
