The Day After and Ice and Fire
Today's Facebook Note.
I have no comments on the election since I try very hard to stay away from politics here, though it isn’t always easy. But my readers’ views span the political spectrum (rumor has it that even a few Tudorites have infiltrated our ranks) and I want everyone to feel at home here. Also, as we all well know, nothing can turn a discussion toxic more quickly than politics! So I will confine myself to saying what I know we all fervently believe---Thank God it is over!
Please send some positive vibes toward the East Coast, which is getting battered by another Nor’easter today. For people who’ve been shivering in the cold and the dark since Sandy, this is the last thing they need.
Lastly, I know this has been posted here before, several times in fact. But no one can listen to this without smiling, even those who are not fans of the Ice and Fire series. It probably can apply to any writer whose readers think he/she takes too long to produce a book. I think it is hilarious and very clever. So, Write Like The Wind, George RR Martin.

Vi, one of my readers had a very funny comment. She said that everytime we urge George Martin to write faster, he kills another Stark!
