Greetings and felicitations.
Would you mind removing the @Ran from the material you quoted from my post in the "Does GRRM Read This?" thread?I'm sorry the way I put it at the bottom of my own (admittedly specious) argument, makes it look like I am quoting him, but actually, his words are the quote that follows, and the part you quoted is all my own thoughts, I'm only speculating on GRRM's possible motives, and have no idea what Ran thinks about it at all, so if you could just take his name out of the quote, and let me bear whatever opprobrium your well reasoned rebuttle earns, I'll change my post to make the attribution clearer.
(I did have a better argument - at the Edinburgh Book Festival in 2014, GRRM had said he stopped reading forums as soon as he discovered a couple of fans had worked out Jon Snow's parents, and that he wouldn't change the books on that basis anyway. He repeated his 'art is not a democracy' quote, but I can't remember the details clearly, and couldn't find a transcript of the interview, so I offered my own speculations on his possible motives instead.)
Dankie in advance,
Walda.
