Millions of nerds cry in anguish as their favourite longwinded cash-cow book series will now never be complete.

Hasn't he died about half a dozen times already?

it's probably close enough to being done that someone else will finish it.

Word on the streets is he wrote down enough notes for someone else to finish it the way he wanted.

Nope, this time the fucker was serious. He really has croaked. Christ, I can't wait to hear the wailing of my friends. I told 'em this would happen. XD

Those books stacked on top of each other are almost up to my chest in height.

And I'm a tall guy.

Comedy nerd apocalypse option: GRRM is the one that ghost writes the last WOT book, then dies with ASOIAF unfinished.

A guy at work who has read the series twice through found out about Jordan dying last night, when I told him, while he was reading one of the books, and I told him that the series wasn't finished yet.
He looked pretty pissed off.

Update: It took him almost a fortnight to get around to checking if I was lying or not, clinging to the hope that I was. This has given me more fun opportunities for mischief than I've had in years(including getting some girls on check-outs to casually drop hints that he was alive and planning a book signing tour of Australia next year).
Sadly the truth is out now and once again work is dull and uninspiring.

In other news RJ's blog is still probably the best place to go for news on the final book in the series.

On an unrelated note: RL Stine wrote 62 Goosebumps books between 1992 and 1997. Thats one a month, he's still alive and well, the cunt.

Actor.

Well, to be fair, I imagine that Goosebumps was written 1984 Ministry of Truth-style-- composed through the use of a versificator, without human intervention.

Didn't M. Night Shyamalan learn his writing skills from R. L. Stine?
