**This extended to the point that during the ''Game of Thrones'' Season 8 Inside the Episode videos, the filming crew set up a ''second'' camera off to his left, and would switch over to it every time he started looking away from the primary camera, in an attempt to cover up how distracting this was getting.

* HasAType: AmbiguouslyBrown women. The love interest in ''25th Hour'' and multiple short stories are "exotic" Latinas, but the woman the lead character hooks up with in ''When the Nines Roll over'' is actually a Southeast Asian woman, with the text going out of its way to say that she's exotic and alluring because he can't tell if she's Thai or Burmese. Apparently it's that mysterious ambiguity that appeals to Benioff more than any specific trope about Latinas. This may have played a part in the drastic changes made to TV-Dorne in ''Game of Thrones'' (the simple explanation Benioff & Weiss gave in their Season 5 Blu-ray commentary is that they're huge fans of actress Indira Varma, so as to ''why'' they're such fans...)

!!David Benioff and his works frequently contain examples of:
* AuthorAppeal: If you actually sit down and read all three of Benioff's books (two novels and one collection of short stories), they frequently repeat the same set of tropes over and over again - particularly what seems to be author-insert versions of himself:
**The protagonists tend to be tall, but with crooked teeth, Russian-sounding names, worried about living in their distant rich father's shadow, but their own aspirations [[MostWritersAreWriters are in Literature]].
**Benioff himself has admitted that his stories often feature a pair of characters who are "me as I see myself" (flawed and nerdy) and an idealized version of "me as I want to be". The protagonist is usually the weak nerdy one, though sometimes they're both separate from the protagonist (i.e. the protagonist's two best friends in ''25th Hour''). Frank in ''25th Hour'', Kolya in ''City of Thieves'', Tabachnik in ''When the Nines Roll Over'', Butchko in ''Zoanthropy'', etc. are just this same character repeated over and over.
**Coupled with distant and powerful fathers, the male character who is "me as I want to be" is usually the protagonist's older brother, or rather, a best friend who acts like an older brother, essentially a surrogate father. The thing is that Benioff's concept of "guidance" from this "cool older brother"/"father" figure is that they're swaggering, confident, and skilled at sex.
**He spends a lot of time writing about women's body parts, without actually developing them as characters.
*CharacterTics: When Benioff gets nervous in interviews, he avoids eye contact for extended periods of time and looks off to his left (always to his left) while uncomfortably playing with his fingers. He's also painfully self-conscious about his badly crooked teeth, so he's developed the instinctive habit of hiding his mouth with his hand when he feels vulnerable. Not everyone picks up on all of this unless they know to be looking for it, but once you see it you can't unsee it (he does it ''constantly'').

* CompulsiveLiar: In some of his early one on one interviews from before ''Game of Thrones'' became a mega-hit, Benioff has described himself as being a "Pathological Liar" since he was a child. In several interviews he's recounted the story of how when he was six years old in the second grade, the class assignment was to explain what their father's job was. He adamantly insisted his father was a submarine captain - when he was in fact a high-ranking partner at Goldman Sachs. His lies about this were so pervasive and unrelenting that the school got concerned and ordered a parent-teacher conference, to see if he was lying so much out of a need for attention due to neglect at him. When his teacher explained the problem in a face to face meeting with his parents, they actually thought it was triflingly funny, and [[TemptingFate didn't even bother to punish him for it]].

**Incidentally, this is why Benioff rarely makes an open-mouthed smile on-camera. He's usually self-conscious enough to smile with his lips pursed closed. Some have accused that he often looks like he's smirking - but whether he's actually smirking or just stifling an open-mouthed flash of his bad teeth is anyone's guess.
* OscarBait: In the first five minutes of his DVD commentary for ''25th Hour'', Benioff bluntly admits that he actually wrote the book for the express purpose of getting it adapted into an awards-baiting film. He spent years in the late 1990s with his prior novel getting rejected by every publisher, so on his next attempt he intentionally wrote a book which he could pitch to publishers as a good candidate for adapting into an Oscar Bait film. Specifically, ''25th Hour'' was intended to be Oscar Bait for Tobey Maguire, but during initial production he backed out to make ''Spider-man'', so they switched to Edward Norton.
* PenName: His legal name is actually still "David Benioff Friedman", according to copyright filings as late as 2020. He says that he changed it to "Benioff" (which is also his mother's surname) when he published his first book because "Friedman" is a relatively common name.
* SlummingIt: ''25th Hour'' was pitched as a "love letter" to the different neighborhoods of New York City. In the DVD commentary, Benioff explains that he was actually a rich prep school kid (son of a top Goldman Sachs executive), but he and his classmates had fun pretending to be dangerous by going slumming at local clubs in poor neighborhoods of the city. Most of his descriptions in it of the everyday working-class parts of the city are actually based on his bar-hopping adventures.
