i've written a novel's worth of words. yikes! ps, game of thrones is not a good comparison. a literary agent is more likely to take your novel seriously if you have more than 50k words

Wait, have I not written about why I picked game of thrones for good comparison? I feel deja-vu lol.

So the reason why I picked Game of thrones is that you can see my github username (SerJaimeLannister)?

Why'd you may ask? Because I had given some minor exam and was in my brother's dorm room. They started watching game of thrones. I started watching from s4. When I came home, I binge watched s4-s7.

I later, wanted a github username (my last one was lost as I was using keepassxc and that archlinux distro got wiped by me back then [I was still learning])

Actually lost my name@proton.me and many other good additions. Oh well, Anyways it was around this time that I ended up wanting a new github account as I lost complete access to previous one. And the story overlapped with previous and I always wanted some nice name so ended up deciding on serjaimelannister.

So Actually the AI suggested something like harry potter or something and I only wanted to compare to novel because I said in one of my previous comments that I may have written enough to write a novel (you can actually read that on HN when I got the idea)

But I thought the opportunity of using game of thrones when my name's literally ser jaime lannister was quite good :D

also after making github account,Then later watched s1-s2-ish. Still haven't watched s3 tho. No spoilers tho xD!
