>I am forgotten
Who do you quibble with?
I’ll never forget Chris Farley
>>223563474Santa?
>>223563474>Legacy is being a procrastinating fat crybaby with a show everybody hates now
It's not even Halloween yet why would we be discussing Christmas films?
He's nearly 80. Doesn't he himself want to finish his magnum opus? Even if people won't like it, why would he care, it's not like he's 18 and still full of the desire to be appreciated by everyone.
>use your money to enjoy what's left of your twilight yearsOR>sit down at the computer and work hard every day at finishing a book you know everyone will hate because you already showcased the broad strokes of the ending on television
Is he still writing that book, or whatever? Or is he just trolling everyone at this point?

>>223563474I enjoyed Pacific Rim
Preston should have his crowdsourced fanfiction complete in a decade or so, good enough.
They should finish the last two books with AI and publish them in his name. Why wait until he's dead?
>>223563474That is not an Aryan nose.
>>223563474That's because you forgot to write anything you stupid fuck
>>2235640492 weeks
Who?
>>223563970He clearly prioritises TV writing because of his hyper boomer status. He failed the first time, wrote a book with the intention of adapting it, succeeded in doing so and now he gets to sit in TV exec meetings as was his original wish.
>>223563474Good
>>223563474He wish people had forgotten him. All his former fans are mad that he'll never finish his books.
He's going to release the final books all at once, as a grand flourish to his life's ambition.
>>223564974>2 weeksHe will die from old age, and people will find his manuscript for the unfinished third book, it will be one page long with a solitary line of text that reads: "John Snow farted so hard he killed all the white walkers. The End."
>>223563474all winds of winter needs is a hook...The night king is an Alien from outer space! 0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0h!
>>223564019>you know everyone will hate because you already showcased the broad strokes of the ending on televisionthis talking point is as retarded as it is common, people hated the last seasons because of the terrible rushed writing he couldabsolutely make a good ending with the same broad plot points, he didn't do it due to being lazy and now senilehe started procrastinating long before the show ended, in fact he had promised the show runners he would have a new book by the end of S4 lol
>>223563970He can't finish it. Writing a book requires an exceptional state of mind where you can just sit down and pages and pages of words flow out of you. He lost that state of mind, he is now just like anyone else, he sits down and is unable to come up with more than a single page probably. Having a plot outline doesn't help when you can't fill it up with pages.
>>223563474Fat fuck
>>223567979>>>223563474 (OP)>all winds of winter needs is a hook...... Aria fucks Tyrion out of desperation, gets impregnated and gives birth to a child that she names Tariayrion Lanister. The Dragons kidnap the child and steal the Night King's space ship. They navigate the ship to planet Krysto where they freeze to death. Meanwhile John Snow finds out what is beyond the ice wall arctic tundra, which is a tropical island called Jamafrica. John changes his name from John Snow to Johnny Coconuts and then slaughters all of the native males in their sleep, and breeds out the females. He then creates the new kingdom of Johnny. A bunch of other filler text happens in-between these two major story arcs.
not doing the timeskip very clearly fucked him over big time. everything spiralled into way, way too huge of a thread.
>>223563474Joe Abercrombie has written 8 books in the time since Dance with Dragons Adrian Tchaikovsky has written 14Sometimes you just need to move on Sometimes you just have to move on
>>223569480>Joe Abercrombie has written 8 books in the time since Dance with Dragonsand all except red coutnry are better than asoiaf books too
>>223569547the covers look like shit i would read when i was in highschool. and yes i'm judging books by their covers, it works.
With anything else in the world - any other kind of human endeavor - if you tried to do it, and then got to a certain point where you said>actually I have no idea how to get to the end, I'm stumpedPeople would say you suck at that thing and shouldn't have tried to do it in the first place because now everyone's invested in your shitty books which will never be concluded you fucking HACK YOU FAT PIECE OF FUCKING GARBAGE FUCK YOU
>>223563474....maybe if hr wrote something he might remain relevant
>>223563474>take 30 years to not write a book>"wait, why am I forgotten?"
>>223564200it's shit thougheverthe contrast between George's sample chapters and whatever Preston & his band did is jarringI admire the editorial method, and the ambition, but it's just mediocre fanfictionPreston's retarded theories + inconsistent prose + terrible pace = shit
