It's really irresponsible to include Rothfuss and Martin.
Nah, Martin still has a place. He's written a ton beyond A Song of Ice and Fire. The Wildcards series has been going on for over 30 years.
Rothfuss wrote 2 books (I refuse to call whatever the hell is novellas were "books") and has spent the time since going to conventions, playing board games, and raising bees. Which isn't a problem, seems like a pretty chill lifestyle. What is a problem is his continued promises that he's working on the book, getting angry at fans when they ask him about it, and his insistence that he's a modern author despite not putting out a real book for over 15 years now.
