Some people cite J.R.R. Tolkien as the opposite of George R.R. Martin when it comes to finishing books. Which is funny if you actually know anything about Tolkien.
These people mistakenly think that Lord of the Rings is a trilogy just because it often gets printed in three volumes. LOTR is of course the sequel to The Hobbit and there were seventeen years between these publications.
The rest of Tolkien's Middle Earth books were published after his death, many in a series appropriately titled Unfinished Tales.
If you actually want an example of an author of a fantasy series with an impressive output then Robin Hobb should be on top of the list. Between 1995 and 2017 she published 16 books in her Realm of the Elderlings series.
TIL that George R. R. Martin has a miniature collecting web page that covers lead rot.

He summarized Bert Caldwell’s article in TOY SOLDIER AND MODEL FIGURE #13.
Causes; humidity and poor air circulation
Solution to stop it; 50/50 turpentine and mineral oil
I mixed some up and doused some recent eBay buys that had a light white dusting. Now I wait a week for them to dry and I'll try primer on them.
Wait a second, are they really making a tv show out of Dunk and Egg?!
I learned to type on an actual typewriter. One of the things I got used to was putting two spaces after a period. I think I got rid of that habit in around 2009.
As I was reading George R.R. Martin's latest blog I got distracted by the number of spaces he uses after periods. He isn't satisfied with just one extra space like I was used to do. At one point he uses five spaces after a period and twice he has two spaces after a comma.
I wonder if he adds an extra space each time he stops to think about how to phrase the next sentence.

A few days ago #GeorgeRRMartin promised to address what had been bothering him about season 2 of #HouseOfTheDragon. In a blogpost from earlier today he did just that. Now that post has been removed.
A massive world full of superpowered and not-so-super characters built by multiple authors... Quite an undertaking, isn't it?

As long as we are on the subject of #GRRM here is a question - can Mr. Martin's #GrimDark actually beat the Germans?

And what about Alan Moore, how does his GrimDark fare against the fabled Germans?!
Not good, I'm afraid.
