Covid-19 gave writer George RR Martin more free time to write the novel version of Game of Thrones

Facing the intense situation of the Covid-19 pandemic, many people chose to stay home all day to avoid gathering in crowded places, limiting the risk of SARS-CoV-2 infection. Celeb world is no exception, when many actors, singers or players also 'stationed' in their apartments, not on the street if not really needed. Veteran actor Arnold Schwarzenegger even uploaded a lot of videos to encourage people to improve their sense of hygiene and self-isolation at home.

This means that when they are very busy with busy schedules, many stars suddenly become too free, and this is the time for them to find their personal projects and interests. For writer George RR Martin, the father of the novel A Song of Ice and Fire (including A Game of Thrones), this is an opportunity for him to complete the story of The Winds of Winter. graves have longed for years.

If you do not know, George owns a personal blog where he expresses his feelings and views on the big things happening around the world. In a recent article, the famous writer shared his businesses, including the Cocteau Cinema and the Stagecoach Foundation, both were temporarily closed for Covid-19. This allowed him more time to write The Winds of Winter - the sixth story in A Song of Ice and Fire.

Specifically, he wrote: ' To answer everyone's questions, I know that I live in an area severely affected by the pandemic, and my health is not good due to age. But now I'm fine, still obey the principles of disease prevention. I am quarantining myself in a 'remote' place with one of my employees. I will not go to public places, and not meet anyone. To be honest, I spend more time in the Westeros world than in the real world, writing novels every day. The situation in the Seven Kingdoms is a bit tense, but maybe not as stressful as the world today . '

George RR Martin also did not forget to remind fans to be conscious of protecting themselves and work together to fight the disease: ' Many times when watching the news, I thought I was living in fiction novels I had been dreaming of since childhood. But what I want to talk about here is the cities on the moon, the areas that can live on Mars or flying cars, not pandemics like today. Hopefully we will all peacefully experience the disaster this time. Please take care of your health everyone. Please be anxious '.

Reportedly, George has started doing Winds of Winter for many years, but repeatedly stalled because of personal business. Many fans even thought that this writer would never release the last 2 episodes of A Song of Ice and Fire. However, after the Game of Thrones ended controversially in May 2019, George's novel was the only hope fans could cling to salvage a more rational match for the Game. royalty.

The television version has been more or less degraded in the script stage since the events in the film exceeded the events in the novel. However, it was not until the last season aired that these weaknesses became visible and made many fans angry and mixed with regret for one of the highest series in the contemporary world. That's why the two volumes of The Winds of Winter and A Dream of Spring are so expected.

Earlier, when Season 6 Game of Thrones aired, writer David Benioff once said: ' Many people are worried that the film will reveal all the happenings in the story, but this is not accurate. Up to the present time (season 6), the television version has too many differences compared to the novel. Despite owning a number of events and key elements, readers will certainly be surprised when George launches the rest of the novel . '
