Don't purchase any of GRRM's upcoming books

Don't purchase any of GRRM's upcoming books.

Winds of Winter now pushed back...AGAIN to 2018.

If you must consume his content pirate it, he deserves NO MONEY at all anymore from his fans.

He keeps shitting out bullshit excuses, while vomiting out one book after another.

He says:

"I just don't have time to finish it!"

Meanwhile he's writting OTHER books that no one asked for, and taking his morbidly obese ass to every convention that will stuff food down his throat, and money in his pocket.

Seriously at this point FUCK George R R Martin.

Who knew it takes time to write a book.

First of all, you really shouldnt be reading his books because the writing is atrocious. Second, you shouldnt be overreacting to this because it doesnt matter what you or his fans want, even if he's a shit writer, he can write whatever, whenever he wants. Seriously at this point FUCK George R R Martin and his shit fanbase.

GOT is reddit tier SJW garbage. The more he fucks with them the more credible he becomes.

>Don't purchase any of GRRM's upcoming books.
Don't have to tell me twice

Stopping Drumpf > finishing the book

Not literature. You have a containment thread for a reason.

Science fiction and fantasy books without literary merit do not get their own thread. Saged.

GOT posters are the worst cancer.

>implying he doesn't already have a gazillion dollars and keeps making more money every season

He lost the plot with Feast for Crows which was 12 years ago. You need to move on and stop Being Mad Online

Just to put things in perspective here.

If he wrote 100 words a day between now and when the last novel was written, he'd have roughly 219000 words, roughly 730 pages of manuscript. If he did 200 - 300 he'd have his normal manuscript length.

Most professional writers write anywhere between 500 - 1500 words a day. Fantasy writers usually towards the higher end of that, dealing with all the plot complexities that Martin deals with.

James Joyce wrote Ulysses in seven years. Martin has spent 6 on this book.

And yet when asked for 50k words for a filler book, he shat out 250k in record time, that had 100k of it trimmed.

He's a lazy greedy fuckwad at this point.

But OP, who would want to miss spectacular writing such as this?

It's pretty clear whatever GGRM is doing, he isn't writing ASOIF. He might be telling himself he needs breaks, whatever, or what he is a writer and not the ASOIF so he should also work on other stuff, but whatever it is, he isn't writing it. Any writer who seriously sat down and spent the period he's spent working on a book of the kind he's working on would be done with it. His production rate is slimmer than the most exacting prose stylists working today. Gary Lutz, for example, has written more books in that length, and Lutz LITERALLY spends days on a sentence.

That much is obvious.

At this point he's just milking it.

The Grim Reaper practically has his arm around him in the OP pic.

I blame HBO. It'd have been out well before now if they hadn't decided to adapt the series in the first place.
Then again, it was a five-year gap between books 3 and 4, and a SIX year gap between 4 and 5...So, 7 years this time (to 2018) would be following the pattern.

That is stupid you are only paying for the book you are buying and should never expect a sequel for anything.

He doesn't know how to finish the series so he's just not going to. He knows the only way to preserve his fortune and legacy is to die without finishing it because it'll cause everybody to wonder "what if?"

Eh, can't blame him, what is there to do when you have it all and all that's left to do is paying prostitutes to rim you after you had a massive plate of curry for dinner.

>it'll probably take another 7-10 years until the books are finished

Its clear GRRM has worked himself into a hole and has created a world too large for himself to properly handle.
Im betting he has realized he has written a story that he cannot end the way he wants, likely due to some plot he wrote earlier on that fucked him over. so instead of writing a few ass-pulls, he has decided to just be a lazy fat fuck and just not do it.

At this point I hope he never finishes the book, let alone the series, just so ASOIAF fags stay mad forever.

>caring this much about shit genre fiction

Go home, pleddit.
