Martin Vows to Finish The Winds of Winter, No Substitutes Allowed

George R.R. Martin says The Winds of Winter remains his focus, estimating around 1,100 pages and noting he’ll rewrite as needed rather than rush to finish; he won’t let another author complete the book, and if he dies or is incapacitated, the work would be unfinished much like Dickens’ Edwin Drood. The piece also flags his excitement about HBO’s A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms premiering Jan. 18 and touches on fan questions about a Jon Snow sequel and tensions with House of the Dragon showrunner Ryan Condal.
