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

I see these posts every once in a while and it seems weird the topic of a book not being written still captures people's attention after so long and so much repeated discussion.

I guess you've never been passionate about a book series, or a movie series, or a tv series before.

I have but it kind of goes away after enough years. I was enthusiastic about this book series at one point but that was more than a decade ago, don't really remember what cliffhanger it was left on even

Honestly this. I get being passionate but if the author can't be assed, why should the fan have an aneurysm over it?
