heya, yeah i'm the one that reads SoIaF. RR Martin is a douche and is worrying more about the freaking HBO series and his side projects than finishing the IMPORTANT stuff in his lush little brainchild. bitter, much? He is also quite old, and not a small man, and i hope he doesn't freaking croak before he finishes his saga. Or someone else willl do it for him. The cunt even frowns upon fanfiction. He says it encourages "bad writing habits." Now aside from the fact that most fanfics suck, are porn, or are sucky porn, i don't see how embellishing on a universe that HE put in our heads, let alone learning how to write by doing so, is a bad thing.
ummm. I really want to play the pen and paper RPG though, it sounds really cool ^^
