I ought to get some other writer to pinch hit for me… I am going to die soon anyway, because I am so old. I lost all interest in A Song of Ice and Fire decades ago. I don’t give a s*** about writing any longer, I just sit around and spend my money. I edit the Wild Cards books too, but you hate Wild Cards.   You may hate everything else I have ever written, the Hugo-winners and Hugo-losers, A Song for Lya and DYING OF THE LIGHT, Sandkings and BEAUTY AND THE BEAST,  This Tower of Ashes and The Stone City, OLD MARS and OLD VENUS and ROGUES and WARRIORS and DANGEROUS WOMEN and all the other anthologies I edited with my friend Gardner Dozois,   You don’t care about any of those, I know. You don’t care about anything but WINDS OF WINTER.  You’ve told me so often enough). Thing is, I do care about them.”

Take from that what you’ll.
