Martin began his blog post with an apology to fans who were planning to see him at the World Fantasy Convention in Saratoga, New York in November 2015. "I have a lot of things to do. And Son of Kong is one of them," Martin wrote in particular. The writer jokingly calls the "Winds of Winter" the son of Kong on his blog. – I also decided not to come to San Diego for Comic-Con this year. For the same reason. However, if I finish the novel before the start of the festivals, I can still pretend. " Recall that to date, the last published book in the cycle was the novel" Dance with Dragons ", published in 2011. Martin has already noted, that the HBO series will surely get ahead of his books, and its publisher advised fans of the writer's work not to wait for the "Wind of Winter" in 2015.
