George R.R. Martin didn’t give Game of Thrones fans looking forward to The Winds of Winter much hope, as the so-far nine years late novel hasn’t seen much progress since last year, at least in terms of page count. https://t.co/daPDGM3h5W pic.twitter.com/hxZDgNgvAH

In news that will shock absolutely nobody, GRRM has admitted he’s written 1,100 pages of The Winds of Winter since last year, the same amount he’d written as of December 2022.
Speaking to Bangcast, GRRM said that not much progress has been made in terms of page count.
He said: “I have like 1,100 pages written but I still have hundreds more pages to go. It’s a big mother of a book for whatever reason. Maybe I should’ve started writing smaller books when I began this but it’s tough. That’s the main thing that dominates most of my working life.”
He also revealed that there are EIGHT other Game of Thrones spin-off shows in addition to House of the Dragon.
