The author of bestseller series A Song of Ice and Fire George RR Martin has revealed to The Hollywood Reporter that he's still writing his sixth and second-last book.

While Martin has always been a regular visitor on the sets of HBO's fantasy thriller Game of Thrones, which is based on his books, he said that he has been skipping visits to final-season sets.

“Going to set is a lot of fun but there’s nothing for me to do there so I thought I better stay home and not go to Croatia or Spain or Belfast,” he explained. “I still have two books to write. I'm working on The Winds of Winter and I wish I'd been done four years ago, but I'm slow and the book is very complex, although there are a lot of great distractions out there."
