STOP DEFENDING GEORGE R R MARTIN

STOP DEFENDING GEORGE R R MARTIN
It’s been over a decade since A Dance with Dragons was released, and The Winds of Winter is still nowhere in sight. In this video, I break down why it’s perfectly reasonable for fans to feel frustrated with George R.R. Martin, why criticism isn’t the same as entitlement, and why the endless delays around the next book in the A Song of Ice and Fire series are more than just a “creative process” issue.

We’re talking about accountability, creative priorities, and the strange way fandom sometimes defends creators no matter what. This isn’t hate—it’s about being honest with the realities of longform storytelling and fan expectations.

If you're a Game of Thrones fan, a book lover, or someone who’s just tired of waiting for The Winds of Winter, this one's for you.
