The Real Reason

Tuesday, December 6th, 2005

Excuses: Overworking; the holidays; seasonal affective disorder; depression. All these things could be the reason I’ve been away from the blog recently. Pick any two.

But the real reason is this. I’ve been waiting for this book for the past four years; it is indeed worth the wait. Mr. Martin wastes no words in his tight and colorful prose. But as with all fantasy series, it takes a long time to finish the story, and this one’s not over yet. At least I’m assured it will end in my lifetime, unlike this series. Sorry for the hiatus, now you know why I’ve been away.

OK. I admit it - and this, too. Very addicting.
