Annarkie Posted March 27, 2015 Share Posted March 27, 2015 Most likely, of course. Not certain but it's a pretty safe bet Especially considering that as of Jon's, Bran's & Arya's wolf dreams indicate that he and Shaggy are alive. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HexMachina Posted March 27, 2015 Share Posted March 27, 2015 Well, I do think he is alive, but the dreams only indicate Shaggy is alive, not necessarily Rickon. But again, I do believe he lives Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Half Of Tormunds Member Posted March 28, 2015 Share Posted March 28, 2015 "I have written lots of pages but I still have lots of pages still to write."Sad face.Yeah, this is what I picked up on in the article too. Hulk sad. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChillyPolly Posted March 28, 2015 Share Posted March 28, 2015 Yeah, this is what I picked up on in the article too.Hulk sad. Might as well give the exact quote: Meanwhile, I'm writing 'The Winds of Winter.' I'm not done with it yet. I still have a lot of pages to write, but I also have a lot of pages that are already written. So, I don't know. I try not to worry about things like this. I just, you know, go in every day and write the scene that I'm trying to write that day and try to make it as good as I can.http://www.accesshollywood.com/george-rr-martin-on-reports-game-of-thrones-will-pass-up-books_article_105879#bBBZdBfQH0A0Cb6j.99 So yeah, I'm not getting any kind of "almost done" vibe from this quote. On a more hopeful note, the "go in every day" language does imply he is now working on it more or less steadily. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ChillyPolly Posted March 28, 2015 Share Posted March 28, 2015 From that quote it sounds like he is half way there. It sounds like he COULD be half way done. 200 pages done and 1300 to go would also be perfectly consistent with what he said. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HexMachina Posted March 29, 2015 Share Posted March 29, 2015 From that quote it sounds like he is half way there.Not really. He doesn't give any indication on how far he is really, just that its underway and he is working on it.(Not that this is the place for WOW progress discussion, I just realised) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Annarkie Posted March 29, 2015 Share Posted March 29, 2015 I'm just happy that he's been frequently talking about working on it and that he's making progress. The cricket chirps over the last two years made me anxious. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zaafsta Posted March 30, 2015 Share Posted March 30, 2015 Given that aDwD was released in 2011, I'm prettyy sure he would be halfway through Winds by now. Unless people agree that when the show was first aired, in 2011, he was not writing at the time and wasnt writing for a while.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Starks of Winter Posted March 31, 2015 Share Posted March 31, 2015 Is it weird that he is talking about WOW a lot more? It seems like no information for a while and then, BAM! :cool4: :cool4: :dunce: :dunce:I wish he could give us a page count soon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Especially with BryndenBFish working so hard to convince us all that he has probably passed the 1000-page mark. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

George says we may get a new sample chapter in the World of Ice and Fire app before the book release. Guess he changed his mind about no more sample chapters. Maybe one soon like he did last year with the Mercy sample chapter involving Arya. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe one soon like he did last year with the Mercy sample chapter involving Arya.Probably despoilering a spoiler from the series (like Mercy's revenge for Lommy).My guess: the series is going to spoil Sansa's future so we will have a (probably controversial) Sansa chapter.

Fitzochris01 Posted March 31, 2015 Share Posted March 31, 2015 If he's still releasing sample chapters, I don't think we will see WINDS this year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
