Why I Think George R.R Martin is wrong about Character Deaths

George R.R. Martin is famous for his brutal and unpredictable character deaths in A Song of Ice and Fire and Game of Thrones. But is killing off beloved characters really the best way to tell a powerful story? In this video, I break down Martin’s philosophy on character deaths, why I think it misses the mark, and how meaningful stakes can exist without shock value.

Join me as I explore the line between realism and storytelling, and why sometimes—just sometimes—your favorite character should live.
