Yes, that graphic does sum it up. I'm trying to be patient with the show (maybe Jamie doesn't something awesome down there). Developing some interest in thinking about what showrunners are making up and what they're doing to follow Martin's story/outline.
At this point, how can we know when or if Martin will publish again. The sample chapters are fresh material to readers, but Martin wrote them years ago. I read all books between seasons 3-4 of show, and i can't imagine how hard it was for on-time book readers to handle the 5 year gaps. That's a whole nother thing, but its surely a thing.
