We understand you’ve had tough times. Do have many of us. If you’re not capable of finishing the greatest fantasy series ever, please let your readers know. Some of us have been reading this series for 30 years.

What do you expect to accomplish with this type of comment? You think you motivate GRRM to start writing aSoIaF because of your words? If anything, you only make him not want to write it further still.
Let the man be. It's his story to do whatever he wants with it. I would love to read it to the end as well, but he doesn't owe any of us anything. The TV show ruined it and he might just be unwilling to write it at the time because it's too fresh, and that's ok.
