SRD interview by SFRevu on Oct 8th 2013

I know this is now a couple months old, but I just found it and don't see it posted here (or on SRD's website).

sfrevu.com/php/Review-id.php?id=14970

Enjoy.

Mentions that GI to remain closed.

It worked for me after clicking on "Listen" on the right of "Stephen R. Donaldson and the Chronicles of Thomas Covenant" after scrolling down and then going back to the top of the page and hitting the play button on the video window. You can also download the mp3 by hitting "...

<snip> Most of the criticisms people are putting forth in regards to TLD are problems of being "too short" or "too rushed". I agree, I would have liked to see the sort of pacing that would have enabled SRD to... 1) Describe the Worm's action in greater detail. Describe how it wa...

Just finished TLD an hour ago... and I do have a contrary opinion here. It's the book in the whole series I'll reread the most as the years pass by. :) There's the story, and then there are the characters. The choices they make; their spirituality; their sensitivity to each other. I found a lot to c...

Finished listening. Little story-specific commentary, but quite revelatory of his philosophy. Found the reference to Ralph Waldo Emerson very interesting -- if anyone knows exactly which poem/essay that comes from, do post. Sounded related to nondualism.

Tried three different independent bookstores yesterday/today -- none of them were even remotely close to stocking it... (e.g., no Donaldson books of any kind, the largest one had just three shelves of combined science fiction and fantasy, and paperback only... ). :( Lots of art books, critical theor...

How to use this subforum while reading TLD?

I am newbie-ish, and don't know just how spoilerific this subforum is going to be after Tuesday ... :roll: I was hoping to come here after reading every couple of chapters of TLD to join discussion on just the chapters I've read -- but will that work? Should I just stay clear until I finish? That ma...

I hope to be part of TLD dissection too, but yes I'd be interested in revisiting the Gap cycle after that. It's been too long since I last reread it!

Wonder if some of these places may not stock a lot of copies and sell out quickly. Will make folks like ussusimiel who preordered look wise 8)

Where are you buying The Last Dark from?

I usually order books from Amazon, but this feels special and I am going to look for an independent bookstore to patronize. There's one in my neighborhood (192 Books, in Chelsea, Manhattan), though they're rather small and may not carry it. Will check with them. P.S.: I am a newbie poster; do advise...

After a couple of years (again), I've been lurking for a couple months (again). I think I am going to really start posting now... so let me say hi once more :wink: I live in NYC, and have been here a long time, but first read SRD when I was about as far as you can be from SRD.

Hi from new member

I think I am new to the watch, though I may have posted in it many years back... My personality is such that I am not prone to becoming a fan. But after reading the short story Reave the Just, SRD became my only must-read author -- I decided then that whatever he puts out, I have to read. I am pleas...

So SRD is no longer accepting questions for the GI. So what's his contact information for general correspondence then?
