Where can I find some interviews that SRD has done?

[Quaan]

i am especially interested(of course) in any interviews relating to the TC series.

[Quaan]

i am also wondering where i could get a look at Gilden Fire, until i just recently joined this board, i didnt even know that existed. Has SRD ever elaborated on some of the other stuff that he removed from the TC books?

Quann & others--here is a web page of a 1991 interview w/SRD right after he wrote Forbidden Knowledge, the 2nd book of the Gap Series. He talks alot about the Land and Gilden-fire in it:www-theory.dcs.st-and.ac.uk/~aaa/SD.html---ammended--same link as Hearth's 1991 Interview below...

You can also try the following links:

1. October 1991 Donaldson Interview

2. September 1997 Donaldson Interview at The Palace

Until recently there were two more great 1999 interviews at www.phantastes.com (Phantastes: the Online Journal of Fantasy Criticism), but that web address now takes you to a caterer. So I guess Phantastes: the Online Journal is no longer available online.

If you want the text of both Phantastes interviews, let me know and I can e-mail it to you. I don't think I can actually post it because of copy write laws.

There was a fifth interview available on the internet as well, but I checked the link recently and found it "bad". Again, if you want the text to this interview let me know. This particular interview was not very well credited. I could only determine that it was done in 1998. It was posted at www.dencity.com. It was moderated by someone with the initials PN who had apparently been corresponding with SRD for ten years. (Guessing from the URL PN stands for PenneyN, but beyond that I have no idea who PN is.)



BTW - Phantastes ("fan-tas-tees") is a word related to fantasy (obviously) and is also the title of a book by George MacDonald, a 19th century fantasy writer who influenced C.S. Lewis and J.R.R. Tolkien and I am sure, Stephen R. Donaldson.

I think the problem with the URL that you listed is the absence of the l at the end of the URL (should read html). I'm reading the interview now. Looks very interesting!

[danlo]

yes Bannor u r right--it works now! same interview as Hearth's 1st link. The search engine must have cut off the l. I thought it looked funny!
