The fans are the reason he is still writing at all and probably still alive looking at the state of him. The fans are the reason he has had all the fame and money he has enjoyed. Yes it's down to talent, but he is where he is because fans have stayed loyal to him for decades while he keeps dragging his heels saying sorry sorry (excuses) time and time again. So yes, either say that you will stop and hand it over to someone who will add back some spice into the series or commit yourself like any other professional, lock yourself away, stay away from blogs, seminars and fandom and use your talents. Piss poor excuse really. If he is that tired, take off six months and energise yourself going through a bucket list. Or retire and hand over the reigns.
