George R. R. Martin has humorously acknowledged his tendency to procrastinate while fans eagerly await the release of The Winds of Winter, intended to follow the Song of Ice and Fire series. Initially set for completion in 2014, the book remains unfinished as of 2025. While he continues to work on other projects, including a new animated film, he addresses fans' frustrations, confirming his commitment to the story and expressing care for the characters and world he has created.
Some of you will just be pissed off by this, as you are by everything I announce here that is not about Westeros or THE WINDS OF WINTER. You have given up on me, or on the book... You don't care about anything but WINDS OF WINTER. You've told me so often enough.
The post wasn't just a defence of his choice to take on more creative projects, but a reassurance to fans who had 'given up.' 'Thing is, I do care about [the books],' Martin wrote. 'And I care about Westeros and WINDS as well.'
