    Thank you for the post. I would heartily encourage the Minions to make posting about routine GRRM-related events a regular habit, particularly JCC schedules and the like. Things that would be interesting to those who follow GRRM, but not something that needs his personal attention. Perhaps a regular Monday post?

    Off topic, I would like to congratulate GRRM on the response Jets CEO Christopher Johnson made to the oppressive new NFL anthem policy, and can only hope Mark Murphy of the Packers follows suit soon. If that doesn’t happen, I will be forced to suspend my lifelong support of the Pack and root for the Jets this year. (Not that I’ve ever been anti-Jet. I was just raised as a cheesemonger.)

    Hey George,

    You need to get down to Coronado and exert some influence over their Great American Read display. Its one small table and the voting box covers up a quarter of the list.
