Tolkien once said that “human stories are always about one thing—death. The inevitability of death."

So, whether you are Catholic or not, use this Ash Wednesday as an opportunity for memento mori.

And then go write about it.

Just watched Ep 1 of A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms…

What do you guys think? It’s an interesting take and I really love the idea of a more grounded view of the World of Ice and Fire and a generally more positive tone.

But…it’s bordering on goofy. And, I still wish they’d let the good characters be good without having to undermine with actual slapstick. I’m talking Family Guy style cut aways.

And yes, for those of you that know, that opening was nasty!!!

But, what do you think? Am I just not seeing the vision? And, would yall want some videos on this when it finally is fully released?
