re: Nerd Alert: Rothfuss/Lionsgate sign huge deal to adpat Kingkiller Chronicles

I know George RR Martin has made the claim that he's written himself into knots wherein his various and sundry concurrent timelines become all tied up and it's very hard for him to come up with a way for all of the parallel stories to move toward the outcomes he's predetermined for them in a logical way given who in the story is where doing what at the given time in the chronology he picks up his story to move it forward. He claims that that takes a long time to puzzle through. Although Rothfuss' narrative is built differently, he probably painted himself into some philosophically similar conundra.
