Geez, it took this long of me saying "Get back to work" before he decides to actually try finishing the damn series, hearing this bull he shovels at the fans all the time. Well, we know damn sure if he dies, it won't with him, 'cause he's not just an ass, but a lazy ass.
How dare he do anything other than spend 24 hours a day writing the book? We don't want the book to be good, we want it now!
Honestly, calm down a little. You've bought his previous books, and he's under no obligation to provide you with another. He's under no obligation to finish the series if he doesn't want to, especially not now that the TV show will end the story whatever happens. He doesn't want to, and indeed shouldn't, spend all his time writing Ice and Fire: he appears at conventions and goes on tours because he likes his fans - and, in theory, you are one of those fans. George R. R. Martin is not your *****.
For the record, I'm not saying it's a bad idea for him to focus more on the book - I want to read it as much as anyone. I just get sick of people whining about how Martin personally owes them another book; if you believed how the internet talks about him, you'd think he only had weeks to live. I am a little saddened that he won't write an episode for next season though, because his episodes have generally been among the best ones.
