Not quite nothing. The info was out there, but it was all non-Dresden personal Jim-info, and so didn't permeate the fandom quickly, nor completely, and was poorly known.
Housing transition that collapsed (resulting in extensive couch-surfing and borrowing friends' spare-rooms (q.v. Woolfe's "room of one's own" -- Jim had none), death of a beloved dog, death of a marriage... Stuff you'd expect to wreak havoc upon a creative project like writing.

I've seen a lot of series go from beloved to hated or ignored based on the last chunk including GoT and Star War sequel trilogy. My hope is that Jim is taking his time to ensure that Harry's relationships are written well. Since this is first book after Murph's death, first one where Harry's with Lara, first one with Harry out of the White Council, and first one with Harry being personally antagonistic with Ebenezer and Carlos, it could make or break several key components of the rest of the series.

This is the general opinion of most of the fandom. I do not remember if this was when we were waiting for SG or for PT, but we here had decided we do not want a half-assed book that comes soon. I think that was inspired for some WOJ but we began chanting the mantra "Full-assed for the win!" (FTW). So many of us had our Forum signatures saying FTW as a show of support to Jim taking his time.
