admin People around the world are finding out creative ways to pass their time in this tough period of coronavirus as they also need to live in isolation. Some are spending more time with pets, some are reading their favourite books, some are binge-watching movies and tv series. The beauty of art is that it needs to be performed in tranquillity and coronavirus has a very little impact on people’s life. And in this time of world health epidemic, George R. R. Martin has a piece of news which has excited the fans all around the globe. He is the author behind the TV series Game of Thrones. He is working on the book “The Winds of Winter,” the next book in the volume that he is trying to write for the past nine years.
“For those of you who may be concerned for me personally… yes, I am aware that I am very much in the most vulnerable population, given my age and physical condition,” the author wrote on his blog on Tuesday.
“But I feel fine at the moment, and we are taking all sensible precautions. I am off by myself in a remote isolated location, attended by one of my staff, and I’m not going in to town or seeing anyone. Truth be told, I am spending more time in Westeros than in the real world, writing every day. Things are pretty grim in the Seven Kingdoms… but maybe not as grim as they may become here.”
“Some days, watching the news, I cannot help feeling as if we are all now living in a science fiction novel,” Martin continued.
“But not, alas, the sort of science fiction novel that I dreamed of living in when I was a kid, the one with the cities on the Moon, colonies on Mars, household robots programmed with the Three Laws, and flying cars. I never liked the pandemic stories half so well… Let us hope we all come through this safe and sound. Stay well, my friends. Better to be safe than sorry.”
