    Just read the Wikipedia synopsis and it does sound awesome! However that's for way in the future, still got a backlog to clear and I want to read The Dark Tower and Wheel Of Time at some point. They're massive series Too much stuff, not enough time!

    Yeah, every other post seems to be "another monkey off my back".

    Well George, there's one FREAKIN' HUGE GORILLA hanging on it that needs more attention than any other

    I'll be really disappointed if the TV series overtakes the books now. It's has a predictable inevitability about it now, but hopefully we'll (just about) get Winds before it catches up. Do you think they'll do Feast and Dance simultaneously as Season 5 and 6 (maybe 7 too at a push) or take the book approach? I can't see it going down to well if they followed the book. People can't handle one Tyrion-less episode (it's kinda annying when they throw him in for a 2-minute scene just so he's "in it"), never mind a whole season.

    That's a definite NO to the iPhone idea

    Hmm, there's both sides to that I guess. I won't lie and pretend I've written anything like a novel, but for university I wrote two 20,000 word theses, and obviously when I was finished I proof-read and edited both at least 5 times. However, I gave them to a couple of friends to read over and they both noticed various mistakes which I'd completely overlooked. I'd called the Ancient Greeks "Ancient Geeks" about 5 times

    It's kind of like you know what you've written and what's coming, so you tend to skim over or at least not expect errors on your 3rd/4th read through, which means they slip under the net Same with guides too!

    Do you follow his blog? I probably will get Wild Cards as it's my sort of genre. But I read his "Fevyre Dream" when it was republished last year, and wasn't overly keen.

    (Cont: 1k character limit)

    And good luck with the trilogy! I can see how writing the other books means going back and editing your previous work. If you're self-publishing, does that mean you edit it yourself too, or did you hire a freelancer to do that part for you?

    Wow, that's awesome news! I don't have a tablet as of yet (don't see the point with a laptop and an iPhone), but I'm thinking of getting a Kindle once I've read my collection of "proper" books. Nearly worked through them now, just Stephen King to go really! But with me travelling back to England twice a year and doing other travelling with my job, it'll be so much easier having a Kindle rather than carting books around and having to guess how much I'll read when I'm away for a few months. So when I get one I'll download it

    I prefer to get "stuck in" to a book, which is why I don't find short stories too appealing, but I might give yours a try and see if my opinion will change. Have you read Dunk & Egg by any chance? Or any of GRRM's other stuff like Wild Cards? He's always talking about them on his "NotABlog" and I would like to try them.

    Yeah I understand! I can only usually do one thing at once, so if I'm reading a book I'll have to finish it before I can start a game or watch a TV series. I can't watch 2 episodes of a series, put a game in and play for a while and then put the series back on. I hardly watch TV anyway except for sports, and I've only seen 5 or 6 series.

    How's your writing going anyway? I've checked the "Vyrasblog" a couple of times and saw your progress. Any news on if stuff will be published yet? And is there anywhere I can purchase or at least sample your larger works like "Bonebearer"? (I'm not a fan of short stories and don't have a Kindle )

    Yeah, Game of Thrones is the only series I've ever watched in weekly instalments. I usually wait until a show has completely finished its run so I can watch through them all. Can't be doing with the week long wait, or even the adverts during the episode

    What are some of your other favourite series?

    I'm glad (in a way; I'd have been "gladder" if I didn't have to be disappointed) that I wasn't the only one to be let down with GoT this week! I know the final episodes will be brilliant and it's been building up to it, but I didn't think this week's went anywhere at all

    Expected better from GRRM, hope he's not losing his touch
