GRRM has released this illustration of a fully grown dragon alongside a preview of his companion to the A Song of Ice and Fire series, The World of Ice and Fire: The Untold History of Westeros and the World of Game of Thrones. Check it out on his site.

Yep.

You're welcome.

I sure wish I had a vocabulary like that at 14!

If you donate $20,000 to his Wild Wolf Sanctuary and Food Depot campaign, George RR Martin will write you into the Song of Ice and Fire series (and probably kill you off). There are plenty of other more reasonable rewards, too. Any donation you make will enter you into a drawing to spend the day with the author, touring the wolf sanctuary. Check it out here!

Dave Goldblatt, a Facebook employee from San Francisco, California is one of two people who donated $20,000 to George RR Martin's Prizeo campaign benefiting a wolf sanctuary in New Mexico. His prize? He'll be turned into a character and killed in Martin's upcoming book. Speaking to ABC News, Goldblatt said "I'm just lucky enough to be in a position to do this. Obviously, the money is going to charity, so it's an added bonus. I didn't immediately seek to help wolf sanctuaries, but the more I read about the charities, I learned it was a worthwhile cause." Goldblatt has chosen to be Valyrian, because he thinks they're cool and hopes to see more of them in the series.
