I was reading reviews of Saga on GoodReads and this was one of the most popular reviews.  You won't believe how much he recycles that joke.

But asking him to finish the third book is a persecution! Or something! Weehhh!

I love that we hate him for not writing the book but will also hate him for writing it when it's done.* We are the worst people.  *in 2031

We will never get the end to this series. We'll see an end to ASoIaF and Berserk before we get even a hint of this series finishing.

My dislike for him is mostly because he virtue signals like crazy and completely misrepresents his misogyny as feminism. That and his persecution complex. I have a hard time bagging on writers for not working. I get bored with my work too. Especially when it’s bad.

My buddy tried starting "Name of the Wind" - he got it for a dollar at some used book store. I told him it had a lot of hype but I've heard it's not that good. (From these forums but I'm not mentioning SA to people, no sir) He texted me and told me it sucked and that he was going to read Hemingway instead.

TheGreatEvilKing posted:He DID? I assumed that it was another instance of Mean, Unjustified Persecution. I'd actually be surprised, considering he literally said that people who wanted to know when his book was going to come out were literally smelly and deserved to die, so... Unrelated, but lol his TV show and movie are never going to happen. They have Raimi to direct but Raimi will literally attach his name to anything for a while. Like that thankfully ill-fated Noir TV show adaptation by Showtime, which he was going to direct. Thankfully also went nowhere.

Emphasis added for clarity:Pash posted:No, but Rothfuss apologized for being so slow at writing his blog. I also first read that sentence to mean what any sane person would expect it to mean: apologizing for not doing a thing that people want him to do. This was him apologizing for not doing a thing that nobody wanted him to do in the first place. Well, except for us fremdschamenists. Fremdshamen?

Edit: Never mind. In the context of the book, it isn't dumb in quite the way I was thinking (but that doesn't excuse the genius who put it on TV out of context as if it has a shred of substance on its own, or "power is okay", or using "okay" in a fantasy novel).
