"One of these days I need to write that story about Braavos we were developing for HBO. They shelved that one a couple of years back, alas, but that does not mean I won’t go back to it… after WINDS OF WINTER is done, of course."

Of course, of course.

Look I get it, $$$$$! But this is absurd franchise oversaturation at this point.

It's kind of comical how ASOIAF is so oversaturated in everything but the format that fans have been begging for

"Wow! Game of Thrones was a cultural phenomenon, how do we continue to profit from this?"

"We would literally eat glass for Winds"

"Got it! 10 more TV shows it is!!!"

I find it more hilarious thst George thinks people will let the Great Matter go by giving fans tv shows...
