I just don't get the point of him doing this stuff. It's like this toxic consensual trolling relationship. I read the last book when it released whenever that was. I can't even remember it was so long ago, over a decade ago for sure. I never watched the TV show. And it's okay if he doesn't finish it. I am over it. But he has to keep doing this troll game with the pissed off fans and it's just exhausting. He keeps making dates up he doesn't keep and says weird shit like you can lock him in a cabin if he doesn't have it out by X, or whatever. Like why is he doing this? Just let it go and do what you want with your life. This post just comes off as a weird passive aggressive thing to keep this endless cycle going.

He's doing it because it's the sole source of his fame and he's addicted to it. So every couple of months he has to crawl out of his hole and make some comment about Winds of Winter to keep the discussion going, because eventually people will catch on and just stop engaging with him entirely. I'm convinced he's never going to finish that book until he's basically just an old man in a shack that nobody cares about and only after all of his fame and attention has dried up will he bother to actually wrap it up.
