George RR Martin just dropped some pretty teasing lines about the release of 'Winds of Winter'

George RR Martin knows what you want and he promises to give it to you. But first, he will tease you for a bit.

The author just published a blogpost where he stated that he's back to work on the sixth instalment of A song of Ice and Fire and even made mention of what all of us are desperate to know; what's up with The Winds of Winter and when will we get to read it?

"I know you want Winds, and I am going to give it to you…" Martin writes, thanking fans for not being upset with him for taking the time to write the 700-page Targaryen history Fire and Blood in between volumes of A Song of Ice and Fire. "I am delighted that you stayed with me for [Fire and Blood] as well. Your patience and unflagging support means the world to me."

Martin also revealed some pretty important information about just how long we will have to stretch our patience. "I am back in my fortress of solitude, and back in Westeros," Martin writes. "It won’t be tomorrow, and it won’t be next week, but you will get the end of A Song of Ice and Fire."

It looks like we have to wait at least until the end of Game of Thrones before there will be another book. The final season of the show premieres in April 2016 and will run for six episodes.

"Meanwhile, you have the final season of Game of Thrones coming," Martin writes. "And the new show that is not yet officially called The Long Night being cast, and a couple more shows still being scripted… and a few other cool things in the works as well."

Martin ends his blog post with one very teasing sentence, referencing the well known words of house Stark.

"Winter is not the only thing that is coming."

Less teasing, more typing from now on, George.
