Not rambling at all, Danamo! Thank you for this bit of info, I'd been tearing my heart out the last few nights wondering what the fuck could drive a man so obviously tormented to create works of literature which ar so vastly powerful... Although, all things considered, I'm certain that the Activist Stephen and the Writer Stephen are both equally tormented... THe Chronicles of Thomas Covenant and the Gap Cycle are two of the most prolific and devastating works on paper, and it would have made sense if the Activist was the author as well. I'm glad to hear he is alive, and hope he writes more! On a different note, I found my hardback "Atlas of the Land" by Karen Winn Fonstad, and it contains the authorized maps and sketches of Revelstone. I will be redoing this picture almost entirely in light of my new source... (the Author)
