Yes, I read it.....Geppetto's not-so-good.....wow so do you think Bran's route will follow what the essay says beyond S5? There were factual errors in that article - I believe it was fan written, yes? Taking the elements of a hero's journey is one avenue of writing analytical scholarship. You can take the same premises and apply them to Arya/Sansa/Jon/Daenerys/Theon. I wrote an essay applying characteristics of a tragedy, in the Elizabethan and Aristotle sense, and applied them to the characters from Martin's novels. It is a way to attempt to organize Martin's character development - one of many, many, many ways to break down and analyze literature. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But millions also means it is easier to do this stuff on your own with no real training or professional equipment and you just like to rant. I compare it to self publishing through vanity presses or amazon. Literally anyone can have a book "published" any day of the week because technology allows it. However, most, a huge amount, of those self published books are crap. Except for these Like in any market people will look for what they like. The better sound quality and practiced ones will standout which this one will be. the watch the thrones podcast was an off shoot of the ESPN grantland podcasts.

People will already be on that channel and the quality will be higher. Chances are it will take viewers/listeners away from some of the other, smaller guys and move them over to the HBO giant. I know I can't wait for VEEP and Silicon Valley, so already my channel will be there. I get that people like to talk GoT. The books have been going strong for 20ish years. However, I cannot stand some of the book shows and podcasts because of quality and content. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Did you like it? Mum is not into erotica or S&M- she likes the romance - and the Jurassic Period fits the bill, as long as the hot male on the cover is gentle and sensitive.

Let's collaborate on a novel wherein Drogon seduces Sansa Stark - I saw a thread about who a perfect mate or husband would be for the Lady of Winterfell.

Yes, it's amazing. But I'm worried with people's reaction to this. So Jojen sacrificed his life and Meera is alone away from her family just so Bran can have fun? That is terrible.

If Bran has fun, it will be like in the books: because he is frustrated of his situation and now he has a new power: like a new toy. But I'm confident that he's mature so he'll learn about it. Anyway, Meera is going to suffer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I suppose they were rushing to the ending scene, meeting the 3EC and they were all in "shock" But this point will be adressed at the beginning o the season. Meera will, I'm completely sure.

Ellie said Meera will be very angry with what happened. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
