George R.R. Martin takes a break from work to blog about House Of The Dragon’s time jumps
The Game Of Thrones author says it’ll take “four full seasons of 10 episodes each to do justice to the Dance Of The Dragons”

Who’s ready for another House Of The Dragon take? George R.R. Martin’s got a few, and he’s again taking a break from writing The Winds Of Winter to blog about them.
As he has done off and on for the last decade, Martin powered up WordStar 4.0 on his DOS-powered computer to type up a little blog about the very popular TV shows based on his work. The author touches on several things, including praise for Paddy Considine, who he believes deserves an Emmy for that last episode, and the “supposed rivalry” with Rings Of Power, which “mostly exists in the media.” But, like Dragon showrunner Ryan Condal, he also loves the explosion of fantasy television in recent years.
“I am a fantasy fan, and I want more fantasy on television, and nothing would accomplish that more than a couple of big hits,” he writes. “The Witcher, Shadow & Bones, Wheel Of Time, and The Sandman, a glorious adaptation of Neil Gaiman’s groundbreaking comic series. Those are a good start, but I want more. I want Tad Williams, I want Joe Abercrombie, I want Patrick Rothfuss, I want a good adaptation of Le Guin’s Earthsea books, I want Alan Garner, I want Robin Hobb… oh, the list is long, I could go on and on… and would if I did not have a zillion other things to do.”
He also was japing around when he said he was going to “rewrite Fire & Blood.” Nevertheless, one must respect a man who still uses the word “jape.”
