About The Author
“I’ve been writing these stories on and off since 1971” – GRRM
“Young”
“…I suspect I will still be writing the books 5-6 years from now when I can finally wind up the story…”
21 years later…he did not wind up the story.
Amazing to see what he looked like at 24
damn, thinking up the story since 1971.
Love the ‘Winter is Coming’ shirt
Naw. It’ll be like Wheel of time all over again.
He ain’t gona live long enough to finish them.
That opening logo though
My god… he was just a boy then!
‘Winter is Coming’ t-shirt. Nice.
“5/6 years from now”
“I see myself writing them up to 5-6 years from now”
What George lacks in timing he makes up in Epic Story Writing
Gods he was young, then.
Ok well it took 3 year to write 3 books. It took 13 to write 2 more. So well should have winds of winter by 2026 and a dream for spring right after the polar ice caps melt.
He reminds me of the principal from Billy Maddison.
Even then with the fucking hat.
Good lord, he comes off so well in this interview. He plugs his books with enthusiasm and taste. His advice to aspiring writers is spot on.

Uh ok
God is love. Wtf is that intro..
Wtf was up with that video’s introduction lol. I didn’t feel safe.
Most bizarre intro ever
Really playing fast and loose with that “young” word.
He’s sitting on the red wedding and he knows it’s about to drop.
I don’t see a nervous author in this video. He was already well-established and in a successful career by this point.
