I figure that we won't have Jon's POV for a while in Winds. According to GRRM's principles on resurrection in Asoiaf, people change when they get resurrect due to how their death affect them and arguably their experiences before they die. LSH's mind definitely chnage when she get resurrect as she is consume by vengeance. We don't know how Jon is going to act after he get resurrect and his behavior will have to be observe by Mel who is the only POV character at the Wall.

I think we might get a Ghost chapter when Jon is inside his head. This I think will prevent the worst aspects of the resurrection. While he might have a more animalistic side the desire for revenge will probably be tempered.

Jesus.
So not only would that mean he's used British date notation for some reason, on a weird date at that, but he also managed to find the most thematically appropriate quote from the Bible whose bible verse just so happens to coincide with the publishing date. Wonderful bit of coincidence there.
Look I actually believe he might be close to finishing, since it's a weird thing to post otherwise, but that's silly.

He has shared two or three new posts on NAB after that Valyria post and all of them have comments disabled. Three possibilites - He is indeed holding onto some major news about TWOW and will drop that soon. But doesn't want any wayward speculation on his NAB in the meantime.
- There is no TWOW update or any major update of any kind. New season has started airing just now and he doesn't want any unwanted comments/discussions/questions (from his perspective) about the show on his NAB.
- He is going to drop some major news soon but it not about TWOW. Maybe a show about the Doom, for example. Still he doesn't want any speculation there.

I agree with all of these theories. I do believe the Doom sounds like an anthology special to me and not a spin-off. Just think Casey Bloys just said a week or ago that they were still reviewing outlines. They aren't ready to annonce anything. His tag "ASOIAF" points the compass towards TWOW even if the post is not directly related to it. He said there are a ton of casualties in TWOW so maybe that's where the Doom is coming from.

Tbh, I would probably lean towards this being show news if it wasn't for the tag. Tagging asoiaf and nothing else means it is pretty likely to be asoiaf related. He rarely uses that tag otherwise. The fact comments have been disabled means he is aware of the stir the post has caused and doesn't want questions, whether that's because he realised he's done goofed with the post or because he thinks he will have actual news soon can't be said at the moment.
Interesting times ahead.

2018..1 more year and 1 more deadline he can miss I do think we'll get Fire and Blood as it is at least mostly written. So that I think is something hopeful. However, I won't hold my breath.

I mostly meant Winds. I don't mind reading Targ history but I'm not that excited about getting just the first half of Fire and Blood while still waiting indefinitely for Winds. (Getting both in one year sounds too good to be true.)

I'm betting it's that Fire and Blood that it's going to be release first before Wind, given that GRRM has been hyping about it in his blog lately.

It pisses me off so much that we'll possibly get a fucking lore book before TWoW, even though George has previously said that F&B will only be released after the main ASOIAF is done.
He should put every project, ASOIAF or no, aside until Winds is published.
Also why the fuck is he weirded out that his ambiguous Valyria post got so much attention? He didn't even bother to clarify what he meant with it. He should know by now what kind of reaction posts like these create.

Still months away? He used exactly the same wording in his blog post in January 2016. That was 1 1/2 years ago. I'm not holding my breath either.
