I think he wasn't able to combine his storylines in an acceptable way and he is now frustrated to a point where he might never finish it. He is too much of a perfectionist to go the showrunners way and blow up half the storylines in one explosion.

I stopped watching after like a minute. Alt Shift X is not good at comedy imo. He's done an April Fools at least once before (Game of Bones).

George says WoW isn't coming in 2018. Honestly I don't think he'll ever finish this book, let alone the next one. I stopped watching the show because I thought it kind of sucked and didn't really want to spoil the terrific books with a mediocre show, but hell I might as well just watch it. I'll probably forget what happened by the time the books come out anyway.

I've mostly been on the optimistic side of things, but I'm starting to think this as well.

Who finishes their series first GRRM or Rothfuss?

rothfuss should be able to get it out in roughly 9 years and barely win


speaking of other books while we wait another year for next season:


I really liked the Lightbringer series (or as I call it the black prism series -.-), maybe more than the stormlight archives.

Quote:
Lightbringer series
The Black Prism (2010) Paperback: 768 pages Publisher: Orbit (September 1, 2011) ISBN 978-1841499048
The Blinding Knife (September 11, 2012) Hardcover: 671 pages [12]
The Broken Eye (August 26, 2014) Hardcover: 816 pages
The Blood Mirror (October 25, 2016) Hardcover: 704 pages [13]
The Burning White (August 29, 2019)
So far, so good. Same guy who made the night angel trilogy but better

I think I'd still pick WoW to be out before Doors of Stone. I think Rothfuss straight up has no idea how to end the story. Remember he sent out a manuscript to beta readers in like 2014 or something and they didn't like it. George is just lazy and bummed out that he's going to get spoiled by a dumb tv show so he's lost all motivation.

It's absolutely amazing that this was the hottest IP on the planet and no one involved with it is in a hurry to do anything with it. I guess it's kind of admirable in a way, but still, lol

yeah for sure. Honestly I don't blame him, the last thing I'd want to do if I was 70 years old and filthy rich was bang out a couple of 1000 page novels. **** that.

I mean George has had tens of millions of dollars for a while now. You give me mid eight figures and if I'm him I'm not writing another goddamn word at any age.

Game of Thrones book 6: George RR Martin ‘Winds of Winter is my MOST important project’


Quote:
Martin said: “I work every day, like jumping between six different projects.

“Of course, the most important, most difficult, most ambitious and longest time [Ed Note: probably means 'has taken the most time’] is The Winds of Winter.”

ive heard people say they dont like GoT and westworld but they love walking dead

id just like that kind of people to expose themselves before any conversations...

GoT is fine but not nearly as good as the books, Westworld sucks, walking dead sucks more

I like the Americans, Barry, Vice Principals, Counterpart, Better Call Saul, The Crown, Marvelous Mrs. Maisel, bunch of shows I can't remember

I thought GoT was incredible through the first few seasons, went downhill so fast when they started doing their own thing. But that may just be the book purist thing. Also think Westworld is good.
