The third of the live action shows is the Dunk & Egg series, helmed by Steve Conrad. Amanda Segel, our showrunner, has delivered a couple drafts of that one, and we are forging ahead. The other one TEN THOUSAND SHIPS, the Nymeria series. That one started out as NINE VOYAGES, but now we’re calling it THE SEA SNAKE, since we wanted to avoid having two shows with numbers in the title. Bruno Heller, the creator and showrunner of ROME, is writing his pilot script for the Corlys Velaryon series. You can read more about what Martin had to say about the new shows here: The world of Westeros (and Essos, etc) is huge, and there is room in it for many types of stories, about a wide range of characters." Some of the ideas we are working on are quite different in tone and approach than what has gone before, and that thrills me. Not all, no, it is never all, but more than one. But it is my hope that a number of these shows will get on the air. There are also new shows coming to HBO and HBO Max that Martin teased!

Digital Minimalism is meant to be an indispensable guide for anyone seeking to cultivate a focused life in an increasingly noisy world. He argues that this results in a diminished quality of life and that we should be much more selective about the technologies we adopt in our personal lives. Newport will discuss his newest book Digital Minimalism, which explores how casually society adopts alluring new technologies.

If Emily's one novel is famed as a literary masterwork, Charlotte's most famous of several novels is equally beloved as a trailblazer within a popular genre. Like most of Charlotte's works, it presents an independent woman seeking a balance between love and achievement, which still strikes a chord today. Her own greatest novel, Jane Eyre, is celebrated in its own right as a seminal gothic romance that is still widely read and, in its numerous film adaptations, widely viewed. Yet many know her best as the sister of Emily Brontë, author of the revered Wuthering Heights, which she championed.
