Not really a big surprise. But still, a sobering reminder of the current state of the book series.

Not sure if the website changed its headline but linked in this article is a link to https://www.gamesradar.com/george-r-r-martin-game-of-thrones-winds-of-winter-update/ from Nov 2023 when he first said this.
So we’ve know this for the better part of a year. His more recent interview from a few weeks ago is that he wishes he was finished. Specifically that he could have written it all first, then publish each book.
(Although if I recall originally the story was meant to be just three books, but as he wrote it expanded to eventually become the current/planned seven. Although the length of these books has increased so what is “a book” really?)
No, they didn’t change the article title. I just picked out one specific detail from the article for this title because the main title was stuff we already knew. I didn’t know he hadn’t written any ASOIAF content in over a year and a half.
