“My philosophy is that plot advancement is not what the experience of reading fiction is about. If all we care about is advancing the plot, why read novels? ... A novel for me is an immersive experience where I feel as if I have lived it. ... So I want all of the detail, all of the sensory things—whether it is a good experience, or a bad experience, I want to put the reader through it. ... Detail is necessary, showing not telling is necessary, and nothing is gratuitous.”
— George R.R. Martin
