Dissenting opinion:
George R. R. Martin is the perfect example of a writer who was incredible (read: first three books of Game of Thrones) until his editors became too intimidated by his fame (read: books four through the "end" of Game of Thrones) and everything went off the rails.
It's never helpful for a writer to get too famous. He's not the first, and he won't be the last.
