I have made peace with the fact I know I wont see the conclusion. While I do actually believe we will see Winds of Winter in the next few years if he doesnt die Im in the camp that firmly believes we wont see A Dream of Spring so without the conclusion it really doesnt matter if we are one book closer or not.

I dont begrudge him though. First I love the existing books and world he created and Ill always have those. Secondly he stays pretty busy. Its just everyone is pissed hes not working on what they want him to be working on. This isnt a Patrick Rothfuss situation where he has essentially done nothing but tell us how much better of a writer he is.

Maybe Ill be lucky as hell and the guy will live another decade and buckle down and knock out the series but I have accepted it wont happen. Im not angry. I have had an entire life of unfinished series. I have a bad habit of starting unfinished series.

It started with the Dark Tower series. I remember when only the first 2 books existed. I remember thinking the 6 year gaps between two of the books was a long ass time. Little did I know what the future had in store for me haha. At least once King had his death scare and decided to finish the series he knocked out the last 3 books in 2 years. I wish George had that type of focus.
