Reply to comment by SAT0725 in People give George R.R. Martin grief for the delay of "The Winds of Winter," but imagine trying to write a continuation of your series after HBO already wrote their own ending to it... by SAT0725

Not sure that rebuttal helps your point; by your own logic, by the time the first season of Game of Thrones came out, GRRM should've been finishing the last book.

Eh, different writers have different processes. Seems like I've read interviews with Rowling where she's said she had the whole story in her head almost from the very start.
