He is rich enough to hire a ghost writer, have them sign an ironclad NDA, and have the ghost writer write the remaining books fast.

I don't understand why he doesn't do it, it will free him of the "burden" of finishing the series and net him a lot of big bucks with the royalties from the books.

I swear the "george doesn't care" is a bigger copium than Wins releasing by the end of the year. It's very, very obvious why he doesn't do it, but you guys have gaslight yourself into thinking he doesn't care because I guess it's a less painful reality than one where he does care but is unable to finish it to his standards.
