how many books GRRM’s former assistants have smashed out in the time it’s taken him not to write one

Dance of Dragons: 2011

Leviathan Wakes: also 2011.

So uh, they wrote the whole damn Expanse, and made a TV show out of it before GRRM has done one book.

If I'm not mistaken, James SA Corey is an alias for two writers.

Point still stands though.

Yep, it is.

Looks like I typoed a 'they' in my post that would have probably clarified that a little better, so oops, my bad.

He wrote and edited other books. Just not Winds of Winter.
