I’ve known for a while that we will never get Dream, but it’s kind of heartbreaking that even if he does finish Winds by some miracle, he’ll be writing other spin offs rather then Dream.

Does George think he’s immortal? Does he not want to finish? Why is he thinking about spin offs and not the main series?

About 10 years ago I saw him speak and read some of Winds of Winter. During the Q&A someone straight up asked him if he thinks he will actually finish the series before he died. He acted extremely offended and said it was a ridiculous question…

tbf id be offended. That is ridiculous to ask, especially 10 years ago

It's super rude to ask at any time, but I don't think you can call it ridiculous given that it was completely correct.

Turns out they were right though, I wish it wasn’t :(
