‘Game of Thrones’ Author Martin Deals with Depression
Martin says aging has brought nightmares and low energy, and he makes little mention of The Winds of Winter in his first blog post since February.
- Martin returned to his Blog on August 3, marking his first personal entry since February and offering a candid window into his current thoughts on life.
- Turning 78 next month, Martin reflected on age, writing "getting old is no fun" while notably omitting updates on The Winds of Winter, a book he has ostensibly worked on for 15 years.
- The author celebrated Emmy nominations for HBO's Knight of The Seven Kingdoms, though he suggested unnamed impediments might prevent him from attending the Academy ceremony in person this year.
- Martin described a warmer relationship with Knight of The Seven Kingdoms showrunner Ira Parker compared to House showrunner Ryan Condal, noting "There have been amazing times, as well."
- The author remains an open figure in Western storytelling, using his Blog to offer fans an unmediated look into his life outside standard PR-monitored trends in digital communication.
