I read “Game of Thrones” the first book back in 1998. He is writing slower and slower. It would be a surprise if he actually made the deadline.

That comes from getting older and older. The spirit is willing but the flesh is weak. Brain cell death also accelerates. This is why a writer's most productive years generally tends to happen early in life. What Martin needs is a writing assistant so he can stop wasting energy on the little stuff.

Wheel of time books by Robert Jordan had to be finished by someone else because he died before the books were done.
