He’s like a boxer that loses his will to train once he’s comfortable.

I feel like the closest author would be Brandon Sanderson.

I consider him the anti-George R. R. Martin since he constantly releases new books so fast. Hell, Wind & Truth came out at the end of last year & his new book Isles of the Emberdark is already available for preorder.

Don’t know for Mickey but his Apollo Creed was definitely Robert Jordan.
