SANTA FE, NM—Offering fans a tantalizing glimpse into what he’s been working on for nearly 15 years, bestselling author George R.R. Martin announced this week that he had written every “and” that would appear in his long-awaited novel The Winds Of Winter. “I know there has been much speculation about whether I’m truly committed to finishing the sixth book in the Song Of Ice And Fire series, but I’ve been hard at work perfecting the conjunctions,” said Martin, revealing that page 340 of the forthcoming volume would include 11 uses of the word “and.” “Now all that’s left to do is fill in the gaps with a plot, setting, and characters. I’m still mulling over whether an ‘and’ or ‘or’ makes more sense to connect the sentences describing how Tyrion cuts off Bran’s head in an unforeseen twist I’m planning, but I’ll probably end up just flipping a coin.” The author went on to promise fans he would finish writing every instance of “the” by early 2028.
