Author George R. R. Martin is literally years behind in getting the 4th book in the "Game of Thrones" series to the publisher, which also is not sitting well with HBO.  But he has been quite busy...just not writing.  Here's the story:

George R.R. Martin prepares to introduce author Neil Gaiman and performer Amanda Palmer at charity benefit at his newly renovated Jean Cocteau cinema in Santa Fe, N.M., on Sept. 29. Reopening the old movie house has been a passion project for the Game of Thrones author — but for some of his fans, it's one more distraction that's come between them and Martin's unfinished epic.


George R.R. Martin's hit fiction series A Song of Ice and Fire has sold more than 25 million copies and sparked an HBO adaptation, Game of Thrones, that won two Emmys in 2013, bringing its total to 10. But many fans are grumbling that Martin hasn't been spending enough time of
late in his mythical kingdom of Westeros and its surroundings.

On the list of things Martin is doing instead of writing the next Game of Thrones book? Reviewing the latest episodes of Breaking Bad, editing a sci-fi series and writing a novella. This summer, even HBO's execs piped up, saying that they'd really appreciate it if Martin were to "get busy writing" — specifically, writing The Winds of Winter, the next book in the Game of Thrones series. It's years overdue. And now he's opening an old movie theater?
