George R.R. Martin has created literature which has changed many of our lives for the better. It's enriched our understanding of humanity, history, interpersonal relations, the nature of war and power, and ourselves.

We're taking a moment to try and add some positivity to the universe. In the link below, let George know how his work has affected you. It can be short or long, happy or sad, well-written or grammatically abysmal. We urge you to channel feelings of gratitude and positivity, and to let any bitterness or frustration take the backseat for a moment.

We can't promise that he'll ever read any of these, but we at PureASOIAF are going to exhaust every avenue to try and get it in front of him. He deserves to know just how successful his work is—not in terms of readers, viewers, or dollars, but in terms of deep, personal impact, the development of empathy, and the spreading of genuine happiness through the consumption of well-crafted fiction.

We don't gain anything from this. We're not asking for money, we're not collecting emails. You can join our Discord server using the link below if you wish, but that's not required. What we really want is to make a fleeting and minuscule bump in the amount of positive thinking in the world, just for a moment. And perhaps make a kind old man feel loved and appreciated in the process.

The link to SAY SOMETHING NICE TO GEORGE! is here

Have fun! Be kind to yourselves and others.

Love,

/r/PureASOIAF Moderation
