Sorry, for my poor english (I'm French, this is the explanation).
I was just wondering where I can find a biography of Donaldson.
I'm writing a text on this author and I can't find many details on his life.
Thank you.
(And sorry for the english ^^)

Your English is perfect, Lyas!
In fact, you type more coherently than our good friend Skyweir
(j/k Sky...perhaps
)
I haven't (yet) been able to locate a detailed biography (it seems little is known about him) but here are a couple of links, which you may have found already:
hem.passagen.se/josa99/donbio.html
speccoll.library.kent.edu/literature/prose/bio.html
www.futurefiction.com/stephen_r__donaldson.htm
Quite sparse...

lol .. *bows* .. thankyou for that most eloquent introduction Cov. jr
Lyas in many of his forwards in each book .. he tells a little of himself .. apart from that .. I have never come across a detailed biography of the Master Writer himself ..
that mingled with the interviews he has given .. and the links Cov. jr provided ..
maybe even a google search will uncover more info ..
sorry not to be of more assistance ..

Unfortunately, I have already found these elements.
I hoped that you will know more things that French people, because in France, Donaldson is almost unknown.
Anyway, thanks.

Hmm probably even less unknown in France than in the US!
I would be interested to see what you have on Donaldson when you have completed the compilation!
