Dance, Dance, Dance

Finished a Jon Snow chapter, and have just passed the 1100 page (manuscript pages, the page count in the final printed book will be different) mark on A DANCE WITH DRAGONS. That's counting only finished chapters in something close to final form. I have considerably more in partials, fragments, and roughs.
Even with just the finished portions, DANCE is now longer than A FEAST FOR CROWS and A GAME OF THRONES, and I'm closing in on A CLASH OF KINGS. I do hope I can wrap things up before I approach the 1521 page length of A STORM OF SWORDS.
Making a new run at the Meereenese knot, but maybe not tomorrow. I think I'll hang around at the Wall a bit longer, and maybe visit Winterfell.
Mood: pleased
at least there is progress?

Would anyone else besides myself gladly give up the TV series for faster completion of the books?

I don't see how that would be relevent. If they canceled he might get disheartened.

Better that he be disheartened for a few weeks than have him spend months on scriptwriting, etc.

I'm also guessing this means there's little chance of resolving the cliffhangers from Feast.

I'm starting to lose interest. It's hard to stay excited for years when aFfC sucked balls. *NM*
