I'm not seeing a lot of entitlement or anger. GRRM is not obligated to finish the series--but, neither is he free from people giving him shit for not finishing the series. If you start a book series, foster a fandom, sell the rights to it for a TV franchise, and then fail to complete it... yeah, people are gonna give you shit when you not only don't finish it, but also move on to a totally unrelated activity!

But I think most of the commentary here is just in fun. I'm not angry at GRRM, but TBH if I knew him I don't think I'd be able to pass up "so, George... how's the book coming?" every time I saw him -- or "dude, you'll do _anything_ but work on the book, huh?"

(Also: I am a writer. I know all about procrastination... best way to focus on writing is to have something else I don't want to do.)

>I’m not sure about the entitlement and anger around someone not producing the entertainment you want in this thread

I haven't seen any of that in this thread.
