!bookworms last week GRRM wrote an update on the new HBO schlock adaptation of his Dunk & Egg novellas.
Did I just read the words "Finish" and "Winds" in the same sentence? Am I dreaming? George? Are you promising me personally that WINDS OF WINTER will be complete by end of fiscal year 2025? In time for the holidays? Did you say that? I'm just going to go around believing that now.
OMG, A TWOW MENTION
I can feel some new year optimism from George. I'm super excited for the Dunk and Egg adaptation, it looks good.
THIS TIME FOR REAL GUYS

No. The super-cynical posture some people take here that he's not working on it at all, is some kind of fraud, etc. is just a perverse form of copium. It's just a way for people to not get their hopes up. It's pretty obvious that he's trying to get it done but he's slow, it's hard, and he has a lot of other things going on. But it's pretty obvious that he's been working on it and probably has a ton of material at this point. What that means about him being close to an actual release date or anything like that is less clear.
Asoiafbros, will Dany finally leave Westeros? Will Ser Robert Strong kill the faith of the cucks champion? Is Aegon fake? Is the pink letter real?

The Name of the Wind, The Lies of Locke Lamora... what else are lost and forgotten?

Both of these hurt more than ASoIaF. They were better series, particularly Lies.

Rothfuss's success reassured me that it's okay to write overly long sf/f books where nothing happens

Why would you even want him to finish it anymore? It's going to be shit-tier slop like the last couple Dark Tower books except GRR Martin presumably won't go on a cocaine bender to crap the last 500 pages out.
If he had any good ideas left for this garbage, he'd be excited to write it and it would have been done already.

I remember the day the last dark tower book came out cause my dad had read those religiously since they came out. As a little kid I hear him scream out "THATS THE ENDING?!?" And I come running in and meet him halfway at the kitchen with him throwing the entire series into the trash.

Anyone expecting a good ending from King gets exactly what they deserve.

Remember when Gaiman said Martin is not your b-word, turns out he was the one who was raping the b-words.

I'd love it if Jon Snow just stays dead in the books. I mean, he's going to because TWOW won't release
but if it did and he was dead the entire book the reaction would be insane

TWOW ends with Jon being dead and Dany still in Essos, perfect.

She actually does need to come to Westeros but I don't really think Jon needs to come back to life in the books, he wasn't as much of a main character compared to the show. He will though because his parentage hasn't been officially sorted out yet

Book Jon is so much better than show Jon though.
Early seasons show Jon is a boring Boy Scout (it doesn't help that Kit Harrington is robotic), later seasons Jon is just some capeshit character.
