Damn, I can't believe he was so transparent about his process and how he is struggling with finishing the book. He usually likes to be evasive. At least we know now 100 percent (which we always knew) the TV series will finish before the book series ever does. I'm not gonna lie, I'm excited for this season, because it'll be the first time I don't know what major plots points are gonna happen. This is one of the greatest adaptations of all time. I'll read the books when their done and watch the series.
I salute GRRM for keeping it real with the fans. I'm sure that was a huge stress release for the man.
