In Which GRRM Has an Ego

writerkitSo apparently GRRM decided that because he is big and famous he shouldn't have to fill out the application form like everyone else to be on the WorldCon programming and posted a bitter rant about how he emailed the programming chair asking for the chair's phone number to "discuss details," got directed to the programming application form, and rather than fill out the programming application form kept emailing the programming chair but didn't get any further responses and how terrible it is that they've ghosted such a famous person as he is.
I must admit my reaction to this-- especially after past GRRM WorldCon disasters-- is "Good job, programming chair!"
Seriously, talk about letting your fame go to your head. I guarantee you if he'd actually filled out the application form they'd have put him on something, but no, he needs to discuss it personally on the phone with the programming chair for... reasons.
