If you're worried that you'll eventually die by conventional means, that cancer or heart disease has it out for you, and you wish to die by more violent, creative ways--good news!
George R.R. Martin is looking to raise money for two charities he holds near and dear in his adopted home of Sante Fe, New Mexico: the Wild Spirit Wolf Sanctuary and the local Food Depot.
Donations of any amount over $25 will garner t-shirts, autographs, e-cards, and personal letters from Martin. But if you've got the bank, for a donation of $20,000 Martin will name a future Game of Thrones character after you, let you choose the character's status in life, and have them killed off in a particularly nasty way. (As if there was a casual death in GoT.)
Not made of cash? A random person who donates any amount of money to these causes will be selected, with a friend, to fly out to New Mexico and have dinner with Martin, tour the Wild Spirit Wolf Sanctuary, and ask the author any series of questions about Game of Thrones that have you vexed. ("Can I be a dire wolf named Roberto??")
In the meantime, Martin asks for your generosity:
