GRRM is already up to circa 100 MS pages on Winds. The mind boggles at the timeline issues. *NM* RandAllThor Send a noteboard - 01/08/2010 04:35:20 PM
I posed the question at the end of 2009/beginning of 2010.

As of several weeks ago, however, Martin has reportedly completed 1400 manuscript pages, and his publishers are reportedly very reluctant to publish anything over 1500. Although I've admittedly been overly optimistic on this front in the past, it seems to me that we should be fairly close to a big announcement, absent a decision to rewrite half the book or some such.

Is anyone willing to change their original prediction for completion in 2010?

I agree. I've actually somewhat given up on the series. Just moved on. *NM* - 30/07/2010 04:14:50 PM 572 Views
Martin's "staring at a blank screen" line doesn't sound too encouraging. *NM* - 27/07/2010 06:56:23 PM 435 Views
He doesn't say that - 27/07/2010 09:41:25 PM 989 Views
Definitely encouraging. It would make for an interesting fall! *NM* - 27/07/2010 09:47:34 PM 416 Views
Would they really do that? - 28/07/2010 12:08:10 AM 1014 Views
I see no reason why not. - 28/07/2010 01:19:09 AM 1018 Views

Not too bad this time around. - 05/08/2010 07:52:01 PM 895 Views
GRRM's now finished 8 POVs, with at least 2 left. I wonder how many more he has to go. *NM* - 08/08/2010 01:15:24 AM 449 Views
3 or 4. - 10/08/2010 11:01:44 PM 856 Views
That was my calculation too. So close, yet so far. *NM* - 10/08/2010 11:11:09 PM 423 Views
