Honestly, I'm not sure about G. R. R. Martin. On one hand, he's taken 11 years and counting to write one book (Ok, he's also been busying himself with countless side projects, but that's not what the fans really want), so my confidence for him meeting a Kickstarter deadline is pretty low. On the other hand, the above-mentioned fans would probably do anything which is likely to speed up the release of the two last books, so a Kickstarter might still be successful...
