I am beyond ready for the next season. And the next book. The latter I don’t think will ever happen.
He just did an interview with The Guardian that made it sound like it wasn't close. Indeed, he kind of made it sound like the whole thing has spiraled beyond his ability to keep it together (this has long been a theory among some fans, that he kept introducing plot threads and characters beyond the scope of his original story and his inability to tie it together is why Winds of Winter still isn't out. He kind of says as much without actually saying it.). And then said he wasn't even sure if he would start on A Dream of Spring once Winds of Winter is done.
He's never going to finish them. Everyone just needs to make peace with that fact.
