More to the point, why do many people feel as if Martin (or any writer) has a responsibility to produce books on a specific time line? What gives those people the right to be angry and take that anger out on the author when a book takes longer to write than they (the readers) feel it should?
I understand looking forward to a release or even being disappointed when a release date gets pushed back, but this anger that causes people to turn on the person whose talent they apparently admire and love (why else would they care so much when the book is published?), I do not understand at all.
So yeah, like TK-421 said, good for him and good riddance. Maybe with fewer complainers on the site to distract him he can write faster.
