    Tangentially:

    George RR Martin says he is three quarters of the way through The Winds of Winter

    George RR Martin is asymptotically approaching the completion of the next book in the series, while simultaneously aging in linear time, which presents fairly obvious problems.

      He should finish up what he’s already got by writing “Actually I just don’t care anymore. The End” and leave the last quarter of the book blank pages. Probably better than anything else he’s going to come up with at this point, and as a bonus it will fit perfectly with the ending of the show.

        All too often, the budding author finds that his tale has run its course and yet he sees no way to satisfactorily end it, or, in literary parlance, “wrap it up.” Observe how easily I resolve this problem:

        Suddenly, everyone was run over by a truck.
        -the end-

        If the story happens to be set in England, use the same ending, slightly modified:

        Suddenly, everyone was run over by a lorry.
        -the end-

        If set in France:

        Soudainement, tout le monde etait écrasé par un camion.
        -finis-

        You’ll be surprised at how many different settings and situations this ending applies to. For instance, if you were writing a story about ants, it would end “Suddenly, everyone was run over by a centipede.” In fact, this is the only ending you ever need use.¹

        ¹ Warning - if you are writing a story about trucks, do not have the trucks run over by a truck. Have the trucks run over by a mammoth truck.
