Problem is he is more excited about the TV rights cash than about finishing the series... Shannow Send a noteboard - 20/12/2010 07:43:32 PM
For those of you looking to just complain some more, save it for something worth complaining about.

I enjoy the anticipation far more than actual events. Christmas is my favourite time of year not because of the presents or the lights or the tree or any of the carols but because the combination of all things christmas builds so much anticipation and excitement.

The same goes for GRRM (and WoT). I'll be sad when WoT is over because I won't be looking forward to the next book. I'll be sad when DwD is finished because the next book will be another 5 (or more?) years down the road. Yes, GRRM is very very very slow and I don't like how he travels constantly then gripes about how people complain he never writes anything for the books we've been awaiting.

Just hearing that he is getting some progress through is very exciting as it means we're getting that little bit closer. Every update brings me some excitement.

I was going to post it on his livejournal but I wanted to share this with all of you. Yes, even you Mr. JA.


Hence his focus on getting the story on TV BEFORE the series is even finished. He should have FIRST finished A Time for Wolves, and THEN sold the TV rights. That would have been the CORRECT way of doing things.

GRRM just finished 2 chapters (wrote one, re-revised another). Anticipation level is high! - 16/12/2010 10:12:38 PM 1164 Views
Assuming nothing else has changed, that's four to go. - 16/12/2010 11:35:21 PM 731 Views
I don't have HBO so the news of it wrapping up wasn't as exciting. I'll just have to buy the dvds. - 17/12/2010 12:46:25 AM 738 Views

I thought he said he'd announce ADwD the minute he finishes, no? - 18/12/2010 01:51:12 PM 620 Views

A Time for Wolves? - 20/12/2010 08:07:35 PM 768 Views
Interesting. I try to stay away from the Citadel, Ring of Ice and Fire etc. to avoid spoilers. - 20/12/2010 08:13:48 PM 847 Views
