    I actually took his blog post as a bluff. He knows people are catching on that Winds might be coming out soon, and did what he could (mentioning the publisher visit, world con news) to throw some people off the trail to not ruin the surprise! I still believe!!

      Rationally there is no reason to do that. If you are close to the finishing line to your book and people are feeling it, you don't kill their hopes, that is just damaging the build up. Not saying he should be building up the hype, just that if he is actually close to be done he shouldn't be saying anything about the matter, let people theorize and build momentum.

      Guys, I think it’s time you all faced the truth, we are never getting either Winds or Dreams. I genuinely don’t believe he is that interested in finishing the story or conversely I don’t think he is capable of salvaging it. Everyone needs to just accept we will never know what happens in the books and he also ruined the show by not giving it an ending to adapt. It’s time to move on.

    The Emmys use a non calendar year qualifying window - so only shows that were finished airing by May 31st qualify for the 2024 Emmys. So HOTD S2 won’t compete for Best Drama until September 2025. I hope we don’t have to wait that long for an announcement, haha!
    Also, The Bear (counter intuitively) competes as a comedy. So wouldn’t be head-to-head with HOTD in any category.

    • @BenJack

      The Emmy cycle was actually the reason why most GOT seasons came out in April. They wanted it to be the last big show everyone watched and had fresh in their minds right before the deadline and voting. Same reason that was when Succession’s final seasons came out.

    16:57 That's ironic considering Wyverns are DRAGONS WITH 2 LEGS AND 2 WINGS...............the very distinction George was pointing out with the changes the show made to the heraldry of House Targaryen. There's even an interview with George and the actress that played Shae where he mentions how his Dragons have 2 wings and 2 legs because that's how it is in nature as there's no winged beast in nature with a separate set of arms and wings, which is important to George cause it grounds his Dragons more in reality.

    As far as house gos George's heaviest lisfting is done regardless of the season breakdowns he wrote the whole thing and published it, then the minions expounded and they published it. Now the writers room just needs to parse through it and make the episodes, they can all ways consult George and the minions as needed, but he shouldn’t need to write anything more for this show, he still has about 12 more short stories to produce on dunk and egg, with the show coming up they’ll run out of stories to turn into seasons in like five years or so if the don’t take years off even alternating between it and house, what are the chances they just roll house of the dragon right into the black fire rebellions, george still has a 150 year spanning tome to write covering the back 9 of the targaryon dynasty which will wrap around Dunk and Egg and crescendo 17 years before game and thats still with dream on top, i don’t blame wonder con from refusing him a panel he has a lot of work to do, true his words and wisdoms are worth their weight, but it takes 12 years to finish one book with like eight others to go. I just hope he does to winds what he did to dance and feast but rather it split by location it’s split by conflict and the second half just gets labeled Dream of Spring.

    …and a quick observation, every single time he has a project coming up he “teases” that WoW is done or almost done. It stirs the fan base and gets him attention. He then talks about his upcoming project before telling the fans that WoW will be done when it’s done and we’re all seeing things that aren’t there.

If he is upset at changes to HotD then he should’ve made sure in his contract they have to stay true to his works. I don’t like some of the changes HotD is making, I think they are actively hurting their characters and the consistency of their actions and the writing so I would agree with Martin, but you have to write it in your contract what they can change
