Back From Bubonicon

[grrm]

I'm back home from Bubonicon, our venerable local con, and the last one on my schedule for this year. No more cons on my schedule until the end of February, when I'll be headed to Virginia

NFL

Have you ever considered writing a character that could embody all that is annoying about the NFL? Names like Romo and Goodell would even be suitable (and could maybe get the Ramsay treatment? I'm just saying.)

He did in A Dance with Dragons. "Patriot Belicho" aka Bill Belichick was a ruler in Volantins until he was eaten by Giants

Well that seems obvious now. So it was a good idea, just not originally mine. I wonder if I missed any politicians.

Unclear ASOIAF history

[wwjconfirmed]

I pardon my disturbance, but this has been bugging me for years:

According to history:

- The Night’s King brought his bride to the Nightfort, south of the Wall

BUT:

- White Walkers cannot pass the wall

Can I hope for clarification in the future?

Opinions

Hey George, I have been wondering ever since the beginning of the year, what were your opinions on the Telltale Thrones game? You haven't really posted any impressions on your Not a Blog, so that got me curious.

PS: In case you haven't played the game, you don't even need to, you can just watch the 1-2 hour let's plays on YouTube.

Please don't skip Balticon!

Hi! This is my first comment here, but I am a big fan of all things ASOIAF.

Just in case I don't get a chance to ask you this in person, do you think that you will write any stories that center on the politics and culture of the summer isles?

Also, your books have inspired me to write some stories of my own, but I'm not going to ask you for advice because I'm sure you get asked that all the time now!

Please write poetry

Hi George!

I've read your ASOIAF books twice now. Your books are very poetic and I was wondering whether you would ever consider writing any poetry in the upcoming books as I truly believe it would work.
