‘Game of Thrones’ author uses epic language against fearful fans

Game of Thrones author George Raymond Richard Martin is often referred to by fans and writers as GRRM. Perhaps that should be GRRR, following his strongly worded response to fans who fear he will die before finishing A Song of Ice and Fire.

“I find that question pretty offensive; people speculating about my death and my health,” said Martin, 65, when asked to respond to those fears in an interview with Swiss newspaper, Tagesanzeiger.

“So fuck you to those people,” he added, gesturing with his middle finger to make his feelings even clearer.
