Life is impossibly busy right now. I am wrestling with the Son of Kong (that is, working on THE WINDS OF WINTER), trying to wrap up a final round of edits and revisions on the twenty-third Wild Cards book (HIGH STAKES), developing three new series concepts for HBO and Cinemax, hiring writers and directors for three short low-budget films I am hoping to produce based on some classic SF short stories (more on that in the months to come), making my way through the Hugo Packet to prepare to vote, looking forward to opening JURASSIC WORLD at the Cocteay and to hosting a ten-author special event for the release of Steve Stirling's new "Emberverse" anthology, THE CHANGE. In a week's time, we'll be flying off to Europe for long-planned appearances in Germany (Hamburg) and Sweden (Stockholm), en route to Archipelacon on the island of Aland, where I am to be the Guest of Honor...

You've GOT to be kidding me
ReplyDeleteAnything so he doesn't have to work on the books!
ReplyDeleteNot sure if that's meant as a pun or not haha.
ReplyDeleteAnd here i thought George was working/finishing his book. He is one busy man.
ReplyDeleteI think we should all just accept the fact that ASoIaF is never going to be finished.
ReplyDeleteDamn, George get to finishing the DAMN game of Thrones books before you take on any new projects.
ReplyDeleteBlah! I wish he would stop working on anything other than finishing The Winds of Winter!
ReplyDeletehm i wonder what will happen if he doesn't finish Winds of Winter before the tv series has caught up to a Dance with Dragons...
ReplyDeleteYeh, that seems to be the case.
ReplyDeletenever thought hed finish the next book before season 6 before, now not likely. The show has been going it's way more than ever this season anyway. But im sure major shit will just be spoiled.
ReplyDeleteThey'll probably end the series with Season 8 before he releases Winds of Winter.
ReplyDeleteFinish your book first dude!
ReplyDeleteI want more GOT!
ReplyDeleteI remember reading one of his interviews months ago and him saying that the reason why he would not be doing any more public appearances, interviews, writing a Game of Thrones episode, and generally cutting back on a lot of his other work was so that he would finish The Winds of Winter as soon as possible. Apparently, he could not maintain that way of thinking for long.
ReplyDeletevery punny
ReplyDeleteSeriously George - finish the books!
ReplyDeleteWhy do anyone care? The HBO series is not following the books exactly anyway. I am sure there is plans to continue without direct source material. IE the books.
ReplyDeleteFinish your books George and not just Winds but you know get somewhere with the final book as well.
ReplyDeleteForgot The New Stuff !!!
ReplyDeleteFinish GoT FIRST ! ! !
Well at least he is working on SoIaF...
ReplyDeleteAnyhow, he's busy... I get it... procrastination and finding side projects that fuel your creativity is not uncommon for creative types.
