Apologies for the slightly off-topic post…

It’s not looking good, folks…

George R R Martin confirms he hasn’t written anything for the 2 remaining A Song Of Ice And Fire books since 2022.

He wishes that they were finished.

The last published book in the series, A Dance With Dragons, was published in July 2011, now 13 years ago.

Obligatory song that’s now 12 years old… https://youtu.be/j7lp3RhzfgI

    So no one read the article? Just the headline?

    This references a statement he made in 2023 which itself references a statement he made in 2022 saying he had the same number of pages completed.

    This is an assumption that he has done nothing, rather than the far more likely situation of rewrites and editing.

    People seriously some basic media literacy lessons.

        No body says he has been idle. In fact, the major contention is that he been too focusing on doing all those things he mentioned.

      Sorry dude but he’s not doing shit. He’s busy buying random shit in my hometown and enjoying not working like 99% of the entitled rich transplants that priced out all the locals there.
