Tolkien and Martin
Hattip to Daddy Warpig for finding this comment, which is by The Don Show and left on a parody rap contest on EPB between Martin and Tolkien found here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XAAp_luluo0&ab_channel=ERB
I post the comment not to mock nor to praise, but merely to warn readers not to assume a direct correlation between an author’s experiences and his muses.
Meddle not in psychoanalyzing writers by their works, for writers are subtle and slow to be paid.
