George RR Martin has spoken out numerous times about progress on the next Game of Thrones book; even hinting that it should be published by next summer. So does this latest news that he's been named the Chief World Builder for Meow Wolf mean TWOW is at risk of being delayed again? Or is it so close to completion that he has more time freeing up in his schedule?
乔治·R·R·马丁多次谈到《权力的游戏》下一本书的进展情况;甚至暗示它应该在明年夏天出版。然而他刚刚被任命为喵喵狼的首席世界架构师,所以这意味着这本《凛冬之风》有再次被推迟的风险吗?或者是书已经如此接近完稿,所以他的行程中有了更多自由支配的时间?

Meow Wolf is an entertainment company behind next-gen immersive experiences and interactive exhibitions, and Martin has been linked to it for well over a decade.
喵喵狼是一家搞下一代沉浸式体验和互动展示的娱乐公司,而马丁已经与它联系了十多年。

He said: "From the very beginning, the Meow Wolf team captured my curiosity.
他说:“从一开始,喵喵狼的团队就抓住了我的好奇心。

"They really sparked my interest and their vision pushed all my buttons – a sci-fi world spanning multiple universes – they delivered something we've never seen before.
“他们真正激发了我的兴趣,他们的愿景让我浑身都激动得不得了——跨越多个宇宙的科幻世界——他们展现了我们以前从未见过的东西。

"I look forward to continuing to grow the Meow Wolf storyworld for years to come."
“我期待着未来几年继续发展喵喵狼故事世界。”

He had recently strongly hinted on his blog that he's on the home stretch with progress on The Winds of Winter, the sixth book in A Song of Ice and Fire.
他最近在他的博客上强烈暗示他在《凛冬之风》(The Winds of Winter)上取得了进展,这是《冰与火之歌》中的第六本书。

"I tell you this," he wrote. "If I don't have The Winds of Winter in hand when I arrive in New Zealand for WorldCon, you have here my formal written permission to imprison me in a small cabin on White Island, overlooking that lake of sulfuric acid, until I'm done."
“我告诉你,”他写道。 “当我抵达新西兰参加世界大会时,如果我手边没有《凛冬之风》,那么我在这里立下字据,你们到时候可以将我监禁在白岛的一个小木屋里,让我俯瞰硫酸湖,直到我写完。“

Not much is known about how The Winds of Winter and A Dream of Spring will conclude, with speculation raging over how much they will have in common with the Game of Thrones TV show - which ended last month.
关于《凛冬之风》和《春之梦》将如何结束,现在还没有什么信息;但是随着剧版《权游》于上个月完结,人们的猜想已经蜂拥而至,纷纷猜测书和剧会有哪些一样的地方。

But Isaac Hempstead Wright, who played Bran, implied that his character's ending will be the same.
但是扮演布兰的艾萨克·亨普斯特德·赖特则暗示,他的角色的结局将是相同的。
