THIA Spam Girl!

Thank you, I'm doing a lot better now

Yep I have one, my username is Itchy_Tasty_1996 (Sounded like a good idea at the time...as you can imagine, I've received tons of shit for that name; everyone thinks I'm some creep who was born in 96.) Oh well.

I was trying to think of a more subtle way to blend this into the message, but it sounds blunt no matter what so I'll just come out and say it.

So, my mom passed away on Wednesday. It was pretty unexpected, as life has been known to be. I'm just scrambling to take care of arrangements and keep my dad together at the moment; needless to say, I'll be absent from the internet indefinitely.

It was very nice talking to you and hopefully I'll be back and running in a few weeks.

Take care

Also, who's idea was it to turn the text box white?! Thank god for highlighting.

Martin has stated that the sixth book will not be coming out this year, but it's supposedly nearing completion.
It absolutely must come out early next year if he has any hope of finishing the series in time, seeing that it takes him an average of five years to complete a book, and the show is already two seasons away from reaching the seventh and final entry--unless they decide to split one or more of the books up into two seperate seasons as they did with Storm of Swords. In the meantime, The World of Ice and Fire book/tome/bible is coming out in October, so I'm pretty stoked about that. Oh, and I'd be more than happy to send you some sample chapters from my book when I've finished the second revision

Long Message Incoming lol

Yea there's only three episodes left to conclude the fourth season/last half of the third book. The fourth and fifth books both take place at the same time, and are split up geographically; so Tyrion and other characters are completely void from Feast for Crows while other characters are absent from A Dance with Dragons. So in the show, they're going to make the next two seasons a combination of the fourth and fifth books to A.) Make it easier to follow everyone's story lines and B.) Avoid running the risk of losing fans when they're favorite character is missing from an entire season lol.

Thank you! Of all the asoiaf books Storm of Swords is my favorite, so I'm pretty confident this next season will be the best one yet; so much action. Well, hopefully I'll be back here in a few weeks

Thanks

Well I'm not in the book industry at the moment, but I hope to be haha. It's a fantasy book that I've been working on for a year or so that basically revolves around dark fairy tales and follows a certain character from birth to death. Some of the prose is very poetic, so I've had to get back into the flow of poetry which I haven't done in like 12 years. It's super hard to get an agent to shop around your book, but I'll worry about that when I'm finished.

I literally have to force myself to write, by going somewhere where there's no tv/wifi. As you can see, I've been failing the last few days but I'm moving tomorrow night and we won't have internet or cable for a few weeks so I'm getting it while I can lol.

Tor.com is a great site on fantasy. I learned alot about the craft by reading the weekly short stories by up and coming authors. On another note, I'm super excited about the new season of Game of Thrones. Alright, I think I'm done nerding out now...yep.

I can't complain too much. Been working on a book; moving into a new apartment tomorrow. How about yourself?

Oh, I love it! It's definitely a relaxing song, been listening to it for many years, now. It kind of makes me wonder what the 1960s were like!

Haha, thanks. I think we talked about this before? Time or direction as no meaning in this place lol.
