2:09:03the writing of the show collapsed when they've run out of books it was generic holywood slop at that point
2:09:04I think he wont find any deals then.Yea, too many "creative geniuses" in hollywood
2:09:09He made a blog post today about he's he's been feeling depressed
2:09:11He was too busy naming all the Elden Ring characters G/R/M
2:09:13would not be surprised if he gave up or something
2:09:14Well according to his recent interview he’s also very depressed
2:09:20he might not have when they first made the original GOT deal way back when
2:09:22he can't figure out how to put more floppy wieners into his story
2:09:22he didn't have leverage at the start
2:09:23he must have had to sign away his leverage
2:09:24I'll say this about the crappy final season: they used his notes
2:09:29Hollywood never lets authors have full creative control
2:09:32Id bet he doesn't want that much of an extra job but he also doesn't like what they're doing so he just has tantrums instead.
2:09:34he’s got too many plates in the oven, he needs to just focus on one thing
2:09:38Fire and Blood is just 1 book of 2
2:09:40At some point you just make too much money to care
2:09:44Because they wouldn't have agreed to it
2:09:48most series would probably never get made if the authors have the final say
2:09:49the show will not following the books
2:09:52he said in a very recent blogpost he has depression stuff he is dealing with
2:09:53the source of house of the dragon is basically just an in universe history book
2:09:54he should never ask the GoT writers for advice
2:09:59Maybe he just never thought of the series that far ahead when it started out? Like it was a one time passion project and the well is drained now.
2:10:02not being controlling of media mix ver is sometimes good. sometimes bad.
2:10:05they probably have the power to veto him
2:10:08He actually hates Condal more than D&D it's funny lol
2:10:10They won't let GRRM call the shots like that
