Rundown:
rpanons is an anonymous community for role-play related topics. This place serves as a forum for game discussions, canon discussions, RP solicitations (ATP, game ads, open memes), and advice. The occasional off topic comment is inevitable, but please keep heated social and political topics to their respective communities. Posting them here will only get them frozen. Subsequent threads made to bypass a freeze will then be deleted.
Rules:
Do not post pornographic or shocking images.
Do not share private entries, plurks, chat logs, etc.
Do not use this community as your social/political/hatespeech soapbox.
Do not be redundant. One page does not need three or more threads on one topic/theme. Your unfunny, forced memes also fall under this rule.
Do not treat this comm like your personal therapist. Threads about nonfictional suicide, self injury, rape, and abuse will be deleted. There are better resources out there for you.
Do not treat this comm like your personal Plurk or Twitter. Off-topic happens, but it should be open for discussion and not just a play-by-play of your life. No one cares.
Shut up about Tumblr. If it's not a discussion about Tumblr RP it will be deleted.

(Anonymous) 2019-05-19 03:59 pm (UTC)(link)What you don't seem to get is that money is only an incentive in someone who actually needs it or is motivated by greed. People keep saying it's his job, but the thing is that he doesn't need to have a job. And what can his publisher do at this point, fire him? That actually would screw them over more than the current situation is. It's not like there is another GRRM they could go sign a contract with. I know this seems baffling because most of us are used to being able to be replaced if we don't do our jobs. The fact is that there are fields out there where there is a higher demand for people who can do a certain job than people who can do that job. When that happens a company is more likely to put up with shitty behaviors because it's worse for them to be without that person than to put up with their BS. That's the situation GRRM's publisher is in.
At this point the only reason why he's still writing is out of pleasure, not financial need. It's plain as day that finishing this series isn't something he's enjoying any more and I wouldn't be shocked if the fans' entitled attitudes contribute to that.

(Anonymous) 2019-05-22 04:46 am (UTC)(link)are you grrm's assistant or something? feeling guilty you can't get him to stop being lazy and finish the book he said would come out 8 years ago? or are you some other writer's assistant that gets super offended on behalf of writers?
either way you're wrong. writers writing books for their livelihood is literally their job and people expect products from them. especially when they are very public about the continuation of a popular series and keep saying different dates and never making a single one. people expecting them to follow through on their job is the opposite of "entitlement" but thanks for playing.
