How the FUCK did this fat boomer even manage to write the other books in the first place?

He got drunk on the endless supply of cheeseburgers and public appearances. You have a lot more time to do shit when you actually have the willpower to do so and not accept every single invite to any backwater con that comes your way.
He was hungry and it was a cheque. Then he got a huge dump of money for the rights for a TV show that took off and he sold loads more books and got enough money that even his enormous girth couldn't eat as much as he could buy. Therefore he just fucked around. What the fuck you gonna do? He also has a belief that he must die before he finishes his stuff in order to be a true 'great'. There is a thing called 'curse of the ninth symphony' in classic music. Where major classical legends died before finishing their ninth symphony and thus their greatest was cemented as it made people think of 'what if'. A bit like Van Gough killing himself before he was famous and all that shit. Same with him. It's egotistical based. Or laziness based. Or he knows he cannot match anything people want and he knows there is no point. Or he's busy reading fanfiction and stealing the best bits.
Have you read the latest book? It’s obvious he’s gotten to a point here he doesn’t know how to advance the story to the ending he wants. And to add to it, the TV show made him realize that the finale he had planned for is shit and will be widely disliked.

neck yourself, cuck
What do you even call people from the Silent Generation? Soomers?
based retard
>Or laziness based.
Of course it fucking is.
...What?
He's a boomer. Silent Generation ended in like August 1945 or some shit. 1946 at the latest.
t. dad is one
mate when the fuck do you think boomers are
ASOIAF books aren't bad. Don't care about angry incels.
yikes
>Or he knows he cannot match anything people want
I don't see why he wouldn't be able to, the garbage he shits out has apparently satisfied them this long.
Writing is hard. This was maybe my answer to Tolkien, whom, as much as I admire him, I do quibble with. Lord of the Rings had a very medieval wordcount: that if the author was a good writer, the manuscript would meet publishing deadlines. We look at real fiction and it’s not that simple. Tolkien can say that his series be properly outlined and divided for three volumes, and it was practical and affordable. But Tolkien doesn’t ask the question: What was his relax policy? Did he maintain a typing position? What did he do in times of diarrhea and mild hunger? And what about all these fans? By the end of the eighth season, HBO is gone but all of the fans aren’t gone – they’re in the subreddits. Did Tolkien pursue a policy of systematic composition and ignore them? Even the young female fans, in their little Daenerys cosplays?
Except for the first one every GOT book is about equal in length to the entirety of LotR.
To be clear this is a criticism
Maario Naharis
lots of filler with dozens of pages describing food, another fifty describing penises, and hundreds about shitting, he realized he didn't know where the story was going, there's only so much you can subvert
He wrote them when he was 17.
I think that he is writing his last two books at the same time. Hence why he is taking so long.
feast for crows and dance of dragons are pretty shit books the other three are great its wierd that the quality has such a sharp drop
Boomers are born between 1946-1964 you inbred motherfucker
He talked about the writer’s block he received after he wrote the third book countless times. He’s simply never been able to resolve it and at this point nearly 20 years later he’s clearly running on fumes. He’ll probably shit out a mediocre sixth book with more cliffhangers and unresolved arcs but that will be it from him.
