Things are growing… and changing, as does happen with us gardeners. (The show adapted the five books he already has out, which took us roughly to the end of season 5.) To hear him tell it, those two books will diverge from Game of Thronesin some pretty significant ways.

Image: Penguin Random House / Sam Hogg A Song of Ice and Fire will be significantly different than Game of Thrones It turns out, those smaller details are starting to add up to major changes in A Song of Ice and Fire, and they’re taking Martin “further and further away from the the television series.” Martin has always said he considers himself more of a gardener he knows the large benchmarks for his series, but he won’t discover the details until writing them. Taking to his trusty Not A Blog, Martin began by outlining a very important thing about his writing process: he is a “gardener,” not an “architect.” If this is the first time you’re hearing those phrases, basically what it amounts to is that Martin believes there are two types of writers: those who plan everything out and know every minute detail of their stories before they put pen to paper (architects), and those who follow the ebb and flow of the story, letting it pull them in unexpected directions (gardeners). The wait for Winds may not be over quite yet, but it just got a whole lot more interesting. Martin has just given arguably the biggest update on his long-awaited book The Winds of Winterthat we’ve gotten in years. A Song of Ice and Fire author George R.R.
