User:Chiok/George R. R. Martin bibliography draft notes

Note
This is stuff I had on an earlier draft of https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User:Chiok/George_R._R._Martin_bibliography

See that page for latest version.

Introduction
This is my compilation of bibliography information I've found online on George R. R. Martin's books and short stories.

Main Sources
 * The descriptive chapters that start each part in Dreamsongs.
 * http://www.isfdb.org/cgi-bin/ea.cgi?401
 * https://thewertzone.blogspot.com/2017/09/the-compleat-george-rr-martin.html

 * https://www.fantasticfiction.com/m/george-r-r-martin/
 * Various Wikipedia pages on his books

The Word Counts were generated by copy-and-pasting the ebook chapter into Word.

There is lot of useful and interesting information here, but it is not really ready to go live as the updated Bibliography section or new page. There are not enough sources. The unpublished sections are speculative. The Read Order section doesn't fit Wikipedia standards as it is opinion / original work.

Wikipedia might be the wrong home for this.

I do think the current live Bibliography needs some work. This isn't quite it, but there is something here.
