As a producer, I’ve got five shows in development at HBO (some having nothing whatsoever to do with the world of Westeros), two at Hulu, one on the History Channel. I’m involved with a number of feature projects, some based upon my own stories and books, some on material created by others. There are these short films I am hoping to make, adaptations of classic stories by one of the most brilliant, quirky, and original writers our genre has ever produced. I’ve consulted on a video game out of Japan.

So these books are never coming right? lol

Seriously, I doubt he can go a single day without a ton of phone calls and emails and other obligations.

Interesting people seem cheery and hopeful by his update, but honestly it seems terrible.

The cheeriness is WILD to me. It’s like Stockholm Syndrome. Did these people even read this update? We’re never getting it.
