"I absolutely care about finishing the book... I feel bad about [not giving people what they want] all the time. It's one of the things that's fucking me up, I'm in a lot of therapy right now... I went from fiddling around with a book that I just liked to work on and I knew would never be published... then it's like 'hey a million people are disappointed in you because they want this book. It's not a great feeling. ... If I didn't care about the book, you'd have it by now... I owe everyone who loved the book something beautiful"

Literally, the pressure makes it harder for him to make the book he thinks the fans deserve.

Exactly dude. He's sold 10,000,000+ books and the pressure is clearly too much for him. And while we can't unsell those books for him, the best we can do is spread the word far and wide that Patrick Rothfuss writes like old people fuck. If we each do our best to discourage new fans from jumping on the hype train, we just might have a shot at getting the 3rd Kingkiller Chronicles book before we die.
