News summary

George R.R. Martin, the author of the 'A Song of Ice and Fire' series that inspired HBO's 'Game of Thrones,' has expressed that he will likely never finish the remaining books, including 'The Winds of Winter' and 'A Dream of Spring.' He revealed on his blog a loss of interest in the series, stating he no longer cares about writing and spends his time on other projects, such as adapting Howard Waldrop’s novella 'A Dozen Tough Jobs' into an animated feature. Despite his disengagement, Martin affirmed his enduring care for the series' characters, though he acknowledged that fans are mostly focused solely on the unfinished novels. The author also suggested that if he were to finish the books, they might not meet fans' expectations and even joked about hiring another writer to complete the series. His candid admissions have sparked frustration among fans, who have waited nearly 14 years since the last installment, 'A Dance with Dragons.' Additionally, Martin has reflected on the emotional challenges of writing the series, notably the difficult process of crafting the infamous Red Wedding scene.
