"Winds of Winter" author George R.R. Martin is believed to have been busy writing for the much anticipated sixth book. In fact, the highly acclaimed writer has reportedly cancelled some convention appearances, leading to rumors that there will be no upcoming episodes for "Game of Thrones" Season 6.
Aside from leaving for the Guadalajara International Book Fair, Martin's last scheduled event for the year, the fans were disappointed when the author confirmed that his appearance schedule for 2017 would be limited until he finishes the "Winds of Winter."
That said, "Winds of Winter" fans should take the final chance to see Martin in Mexico to get their books signed. Incidentally, loyal fans of Martin have reportedly been waiting for five years for the book's next chapter, given that "A Dance with Dragons" was published in 2011, which coincides with the premiere of the TV series. Meantime, "Winds of Winter" fans believe that the new novel has been completed and was set to be released during the premiere of "Game of Thrones" Season 7.
Based on what was posted on the official "Winter is Coming" website, Martin will keep on writing "Winds of Winter" in 2017, which means those who believed he had finished his manuscript may now adjust their expectations. However, it appears that the next book is unlikely to be published in time for the release of "Game of Thrones" Season 7 next year, Screen Crush reported.
Meanwhile, George R.R. Martin recently shared some latest information regarding the status of the "Winds of Winter," creating some speculations of a likely 2017 release. The author was reported to provide a short update on the progress of "Winds of Winter" through his LiveJournal.
"Winds of Winter" best-selling author also revealed that there would be more work done in 2017. While there is no clear indication of any publication date for "Winds of Winter" to beat the summer release for "Game of Thrones" Season 7, the fans are still happy to know about the progress, according to a report.
