"... without asking how he’s balancing these projects with the long-awaited sixth and final book, The Winds of Winter, in his A Song of Ice and Fire series."

If only... I might have hopes if he only had Winds to finish. But there's also A Dream of Spring and that will never see the light of day. At least not written by Martin.

I sometimes wonder how far he got, then saw the negative reaction to the end of GoT and went Sod it, I'm not rewriting all of that ...

My personal conspiracy theory is that they’re mostly done and he’s just going to wait to release them when he’s dead. Then he doesn’t have to hear everyone bitching about it lol

My theory is that they aren't near done. They will be finished by a publisher after he's dead using AI. They will be awful but everyone will buy them anyway.

Then there will be a new miniseries based on the books after around 10 years that they'll call a reboot and definitive edition. This miniseries will probably be directed by AI. And it will be SHIT. And they'll make tons of money.

Sorry.
