today we sat down with William Faulkner about his background and his works. Although it is a short interview , we hope you enjoy and take a look.
MS:good afternoon , how are you Mr.Faulkner ?
Faulkner: fine , thank you.
MS: very well. how did you start writing , what are your inspirations ?
Faulkner:my inspirations were experiences in the place where I grew up and the things I saw and witnessed in the South.
MS:Is that what inspired your book "Light In August" ?
Faulkner:Not in its entireity but it did have a strong influence on the subject that I wrote about and how it was taboo and not widely discussed as it should have possibly been.
MS:Did your brief stints in Hollywood affect your writing style ?
Faulkner:Somewhat , but it was a good experience for me and how it helped me evolve as a writer and what it meant to survive in the business and how I conducted myself thats why I often write back at my farm home in Oxford , my hometown.
MS:I agree. Thank you for sitting down with us today , and allowing us to get a little piece of your life and what inspires you.
Faulkner:Thank you for having me.
-the MS team.
