Harry Potter TV Series

I wonder if that statement explains GRRM's inability to finish book six (much less the entire series). Maybe he just became exhausted from the intricacies of the story he'd written and can't get anything further out of his brain when he tries to go forward.

I think he legitimately was not sure what a satisfying ending would be and when the one he gave to HBO was so widely panned, he became terrified of writing a terrible ending to the books that would be just as widely panned.

That and I think he's afraid that if he finished the books people won't pay attention to him anymore.
