\"Faulkner I’ve been a fan of Faulkner’s work for some time now. His body of work is such that it’s taken me years to get through a good chunk of his stories. I’ve never considered him a spec writer, even though his story “A Rose for Emily” qualifies as horror of the highest level, especially considering the era.

Some will probably read it and roll their eyes at what has become a common spec trope (no, I’m not saying what it is, go read it!). But, for its day, and with Faulkner’s finesse thrown in, I really enjoyed it.<\/p>\n
