Just curious but why do people hate Linda? And I am assuming you are referring to Linda Ant.? You need to read this. That piece is atrocious. Regardless of what Linda might have done (I don't know whether she has done everything that is claimed, so I wont pass comment on that aspect of it) is it really necessary to post such a hateful a vitriolic piece about her? Surely, if she has done what they claim (again, not trying to say she has or hasn't, as I do not know) then they are merely "stooping to her level" so to speak. I also think the comments regarding her life as a student are very invasive and unnecessary. Her personal life is none of our business.

The article is pretty unpleasant, but it does provide receipts for most (all?) of it's claims...

I really don't know much about all this other stuff with Lindaaaa (I did look up one of the links someone posted here, so based on that I can only imagine). I'm not completely unaware, as I tried to watch a you tube thing a while back that she and Elio did previewing season 5, and I've also had trouble finding relevant discussion threads where the posts hadn't gotten way off topic or else focused on some sort of private argument or private joke, so I just haven't been on the site much in the past year. But, anyway, I did have a thought about TWOW publication date the other day. After watching Hardhome, which I think for everyone was like, "Holy Shit! Ned Stark wasn't kidding, Winter IS really coming!", I've wondered what George thought of it and if he had a bit of a similar reaction. I mean, I know that on one level, of course he didn't, because he created this entire thing in the first place, but on another level, maybe one of those "Damn, I'd better get my shit in order!" kind of moments???

Because almost all of it comes directly from Linda's tumblr, regardless of the tone of the post.

I find it curious that GRRM hasn't posted anything on his blog since May 18th. Since I've been following him daily, this is the longest stretch I've seen where he hasn't logged anything. I know he had a brief conversation with EW.com yesterday, but it makes me speculate that something significant could be coming soon.

You know, this brings up an interesting consideration (one of a zillion, following 5.10), since HBO has veered so far from the books. We don't know what's going to happen to Sansa after the big jump with Theon, and we don't know how everything with Alayne is going to play out in The Vale, bookwise, but since the two have got to converge at some point, and even if Sansa should not survive the series (at this rate, we have no guarantees), she's not about to be 'killed off' anytime soon. So whichever we get first, TWOW or Season 6, surely the one will give us a clue as to how it will go with the other.

harryberger89 Jul. 12th, 2015 07:01 pm (UTC) Twow Not sure if you can answer this or not but I assume that at this meeting with your publishers, editors and agents that the Winds of Winter will be talked about?
Thank you!grrm Jul. 12th, 2015 08:17 pm (UTC) Re: Twow Oh, I imagine so. It comes up from time to time, can't think why.GRRM is trolling us a little. Can't help to think that maybe maybe maybe maybe we are close. source

We have also a persian wiki about A Song of Ice and Fire and our wiki have link with the English and Italian wiki as well.

Thank you for your time and attention.
grrm Jul. 12th, 2015 05:51 pm (UTC) Thanks, but I am not doing interviews just now, and I never do email interviews.
Maybe when WINDS OF WINTER is done.
Good luck with your website.
He's meeting with his publishers the week of August 8th. And he said "when WOW is done" in an sentence. Optimistic vibes here.

Well if he's not planning on doing interviews until he's finished with TWOW then that is a good sign I think because he loves them

I think so too. I feel like we're getting close to an announced release date at least.
And I'm usually very pessimistic about this.

I'd love to see House Bolton in the appendix instead of the people like Florents.
Also, this is off-topic but since this seems to be kind of an TWoW thread, I thought I'd say this about Others being evil:
I think this is straight from Lovecraft's novels but IMO it applies to WW too.

House Bolton arent that big... Roose, Walda, Ramsay, Domeric and thats it. Roose's dead wifeus, Walton, that Maester who pissed himself in the presence of Mannis and thats about all I can think of.

But you can add Bastard's boys, Bastard's girls, Ryswells, Dustins etc. I'm tired of those boring ass Starks having all of Northern houses in their appendix.

I had a dream last night that I got this book for Christmas. Maybe I had a Bran like vision of the future and we're getting a winter release date?
