Game of Thrones author George R.R. Martin calls The Winds of Winter the "curse of my life" after admitting it's "13 years late", but offers a tiny glimmer of hope: "I have periods where I make progress"

George R.R. Martin.

George R.R. Martin's sixth book in his fantasy series A Song of Ice and Fire has long since overshot its due date. Now, the author – admitting it's over a dozen years late – gives the latest update on how work is coming along with The Winds of Winter.

When pressed by Time on how work on The Winds of Winter is going, Martin said, "That's the curse of my life here. There's no doubt Winds of Winter is 13 years late. I'm still working on it. I have periods where I make progress and then other things divert my attention."
