so can we safely assume that if TWOW doesn't come out before

be more grateful you ungrateful ingrate

>>8663669
Who cares

>>8663674
Why? A commercial fantasy writer delivers a service to his readers. He's delivering that service poorly.

raking in cash

>>8663669
The fatman is fucking lazy. I hate the bullshit argument that it is "his" work. Anyone who says that: fuck off. It'll be more than six years since ADWD by the time TWOW comes out. No book takes that long. The guy's a lazy hack.

You bet I'm fucking mad.

Hes old, and finally has mass recognition and money, let him enjoy it

>>8663675
This.

He's probably nervous. He literally hasn't written a book in the series since the tv show started.
Lots of people watching him now, lots of pressure for it to be great.

It's going to be awesome

he probably can't write an ending that isn't garbage. so he's just gonna die before it ever ends.

With as bad as the show has gotten, he could shit out anything and it would be better than the show. And yet he doesn't. Stupid selfish cunt.

>>8663680
Wow, you did it!

IJ wasn't a series, right? Grrm likes to open various plot threads without closing them properly, now he actually has to conclude all that he's written. I heard fantasy publishers no longer look approvingly on these long doorstopper serials because of situations like this.

>>8663669
his ending is pleb tier and he wants it to be patrician, so he's desperately searching for a way to make it work with the foreshadowing he's built up so far.

(right now his planned ending is daenerys and jon frying white walkers with one of them dying a tragic death and the other forced to rule without them)

>>8665249
Y-Yeah dude, meme books!

Hey, what's your favorite character in Finnegan's
Wake? Mine has got to be Finnegan.

>>8663839
>let him enjoy it
no

>>8663669
He shit on Tolkien for writing a generic 'good vs evil' story and then realised he's written himself into a corner where a generic good vs evil battle is the only logical way to get out of it.

So he'd just rather not bother.

>>8665309
Kek, literally this.

Even if he makes, say, Dany, evil and the white walkers good, it's still the same thing.

>>8663866
They were never great to start with, anon. He should have nothing to fear.

I like to believe he spent way too much time on that "The World of Ice and Fire" deal. That came out in 2014, right? Maybe he realized some things writing that book that made him want to change his plans from his earlier drafts of TWOW.

>DFW wrote infinite jest in 3 years
Really? No wonder it's shit. Everyone knows it takes at least 10 years to write a masterpiece, it doesn't deserved to be ranked among the two other works of the meme trilogy.
