Idk why people are so quick to assume the election wasn’t tampered with. I wouldn’t be shocked if 90% of all elections in history were tampered with. The thing is nobody really knows and to immediately go to the side that the government would never lie to you is idiotic.
Maybe that’s why this guy is so fucking terrible at writing good politics into his stories
I'm convinced a good 90% of people who are so immediately and unwaveringly adamant that it was the most safe and secure election ever know full well that it wasn't deep down and just run cover for it because they liked the result.
Probably started it over after the last season of the show came out, probably at least partially based on his idea of the ending, and everybody hated it.
Martin wrote the series to "subvert expectations," at a certain point he wrote himself into a corner and there's nothing left to subvert. He would have to just write a normal story and that's unbearable for him.
There's also the interesting tidbit that he had a collaborator on the first two books (the Expanse author) who left to pursue his own career, then Martin's output plummeted.
I doubt he wrote more than a chapter or two of Book 6, if even that.
It's something that so many people still cannot accept: Martin is and always was a hack. All writers that rely upon "subverting expectations" are terrible. Do you think Tolkien was interested in "subverting expectations"? Do you think Shelley was? Lewis, Barrie, Stoker, Carroll, etc, etc, etc.
Great authors don't look to subvert those that came before them. They simply wish to be among them, even if they often don't think they could be.
There's nothing wrong with a twist, but nutty leftists have decided that subverting expectations is the only thing that matters. Hence, they embrace every new degeneracy they encounter, and seek out the next, as if it's a badge of honor.
That's what I mean by "writers that rely upon subverting expectations".
There's nothing wrong with twists. Twists are generally good. The problem arises when a writer relies solely on twists as their bread and butter as a marker of quality.
Twists are just one tool in a writers repertoire. Ignoring the other tools available can only lead to substandard stories.
I have the ultimate subversion: the Others stop faffing around and execute their plan, bulldozing the Wall down, overrunning Westeros, bringing on an eternal winter to it, and killing everyone. Because bad guys and the universe as a whole don't just wait around for everyone else to finish their character arcs before taking action. Bam, big story about deconstructing fantasy conventions done.
I've known d&d campaigns to turn out like that. Party decides to fuck off on a side quest of their own fabrication then wonder why the apocalypse happens 6 months later.
to "subvert expectations," at a certain point he wrote himself into a corner
Or as I like to call it, circling the drain. You abandon all sense of a coherent storyline so the only thing keeping you afloat is shock value. So you spin things faster and faster trying to stave off the inevitabe fall.
Dude is a fat neckbeard that wrote fantasy fanfiction. Hit it big. Now he doesn't want to do any work. I can't say I blame the guy, tbh. He's just displaying his terrible characteristics as a person though. He could just come out and admit the truth that he's too lazy and can't be bothered to finish the story not to mention the fame has made him too self conscious about finishing because he cares what other people think far too much. He lacks the integrity to come out and speak the truth so he'll just blame everyone else for his own faults. Typical lazy neckbeard leftist mentality. He doesn't owe it to anyone to finish the book and he'd be a much better person if he just said as much.
Obviously, he does. The people who bought his previous books, and were interested in his stories, did so under the assumption that he would actually finish what he started. After all, if he said "hey dumbasses, five books is all you're going to get, the last two books will never get finished, OKAAAAY?" when he released the first book, no one would have bought it.
I hate that argument with a passion. Other authors finish their series, there's even authors who make writing their passion and use all the life they have to finish their series. Someone like for example Eichiro Oda comes to mind who makes One Piece. His schedule is outright bonkers yet he still does it. Meanwhile Martin and other authors (someone like Patrick Rothfuss comes to mind) just wank about how great they are and never even finish something.
I think the problem is that we have lost the concept of "duty" as a society. We have forgotten that we have moral and spiritual obligations, even if there is no legal consequence for breaking them.
This concept isn't even unique to Western society; the Hindu concept of dharma is similar.
Every now and then, I ask myself: why is this arrogant fat fuck still alive, while the younger, more health-conscious, and incredibly humble Kentaro Miura dead?
Hello AI slave. This is a blog post of a writer who refuses to complete his novel, presumably due to never-ending sadness. Summarize this blog post in 400 letters or less, emphasizing the main reasons as to why he cannot move himself to finish his stupid book.
The writer reflects on the past year, filled with sadness and despair. The world is in chaos with wars raging in various countries and growing polarization in the US. Democracy is under threat, hate is rising, and cancel culture is destroying lives. The writer denounces the ex-president, the belief in a stolen election, and the dangers of January 6. Death has taken many beloved authors from the writer's circle, leaving a sense of impending doom. The future looks bleak with the possibility of climate change and nuclear war. The writer questions their own influence and whether their words have any impact. Social media has become a toxic space, dominated by anti-fans. The writer finds solace in simple pleasures like chocolate and books, but even those are tainted by negativity. The issue of immigration adds to the sadness, as a nation of immigrants now hates immigrants. Overall, the writer's deep sadness and the state of the world prevent them from finding the motivation to finish their novel.
Not that I care about his work, but if that fat sack of shit was writing a paragraph or two per day, which is essentially nothing, he’d be done by now. He could have also hired a ghostwriter to do most of the work. He is most likely bitter because he knows that his last books suck.
I believe there's some truth in the theory that Ty Franck is the real author of ASOFAI. Long story short, Ty Franck was GRRM's assistant for the books that were actually published. Ty Franck then left to go co-write The Expanse. GRRM hasn't published any ASOFAI books since Franck's departure. Obviously Franck played some crucial role in creating that franchise that GRRM can't replace.
One Piece will probably finish before he even dies half of this supposed book.
I just think he's fucked himself in that he procrastinated too long on this book that the show finished before on a flop so now he can't phone it in since readers will quickly spread if it's shit or not as soon as it's released.
C.S. Lewis and J.R.R. Tolkien sure were lucky to live in a era without war and the threat of nuclear disaster. /s
This is the fundamental difference between the wise man who builds his spiritual foundation on rock and the fool builds his spiritual foundation on sand.
"After the conclusion of the interview he pulled out his flaccid penis and waggled it at us for thirty minutes."
Weiner, Weiner Weiner!
That Black Friday Trilogy is probably my second favorite South Park episode.
Classic.
Wow didn't know GRRM was related to Gavin McInnes.

Democracy is under threat. Not by the guy who's prosecuting his opponent, but by the guy who's being persecuted.
2016 was five years after the last book released and supposedly book 6 was already mostly done by then.

They issue is that they'll sacrifice the entire rest of the story for that twist.
Even if the twist isn't worth it.

Martin doesn't even like Tolkien IIRC.

What is so wrong with just telling a story nowadays? Idk why people are so obsessed with “subverting expectations”
Leftist brain rot. They only know The Revolution
The legacy of modern entertainment is hating your audience.
Because retards want "to be shocked" rather than entertained.
But is Gamergate somehow at fault?
If we were gonna move anyones stair muffin, it'd be his.
He's far too fat to keep them around for any length of time.

Japanese Work Ethic vs Amerifat Work Ethic I suppose.
In a more similar vein, I ask why this idiot is still alive, but Robert Jordan had to die >:(
Hah, not even close you vindictive old fart
So he is determined to do anything to keep from writing his books. You would think at some point ranting about Trump would get old
Very true.

I will now choose to believe that GRRM wrote the food descriptions and Ty Franck wrote the rest.
Don't worry fatty. AI already produced a better last GoT book than you'd ever be able to write. You are no longer needed.
It did? More info?

I guess "I don't want to" was just too fucking hard to say, but a multi paragraph diatribe wasn't.
HOW ABOUT USING SOME OF THAT WRITING SKILL FOR THE BOOKS?
Jesus fucking Christ.
Funny, I blame toxic writers when books aren't completed.
He gave out awards to people he thought deserved them to thwart the Sad Puppies.
I hope the fat fuck chokes too death on a gas station hot dog jk
One Piece will probably finish before he even dies half of this supposed book.

So he finally stopped blaming Bush?
shut up and write faggot
Doesnt he have a publisher and a contract? At what point do they just hire a ghost writer and sue him for the rights?
Someone moved his Stairs Muffin?! Gamergate!!!!!!
At least he got to be rowling in money with the cult-ured tv show. Other authors only wish they could sell-out half as well.
go back to work lardass
Damn comments disabled otherwise I'd have told him to go an hero.
DAMN YOU BLUMPF!!!!!
Terminally online old man with no children thinks world will end with him, film at 11.
Take this as a cautionary tale.
