    20 years?! We’re closing on 30!

    GRRM started writing aGoT in 1991, and published in 1996!

      I’d love to be wrong here but I’m convinced that man is going to his grave without writing another word for it. Which is fair, he’s written over 1.7 million words in ASOIAF according to Wikipedia.

        It seems likely, but he at least has chosen two people that get to take it over in that case who both know what he has planned.

        He seems to start over all the time when writing. So maybe he is writing everyday but never to completion.

          Good point, I suppose more accurately I am convinced he won’t publish any more in the main ASOIAF storyline. If I’m wrong I get to be pleasantly surprised.
