Exactly what I was thinking.

Mr. Martin has to do some seriously FAST writing and editing SOON, or the show will catch up.

The problem is that many of these Epic Fantasy authors have book deals with the publishers where they agree to X number of books for X $.

So, he is contractually obligated to write X number of books.

The problem then is that readers sometimes get books with a lot of words, and very little action that carries the story forwards.

This happened to the latest Dance With Dragons and Feast for Crows.
