Thoughts on My Research Paper...
Over the last couple of weeks, I have been finding that doing research on Tennessee Williams was becoming increasingly difficult. I changed my topic questions three times in order to maximize my search results, but with no avail. No articles on JStor, Galileo or Google Scholar mentioned any of my specific topics. After talking with my teacher and trying again with no results I decided to change my topic to William Faulkner, but I kept my same topic question which was does this author's literary works encompass the ideals and values of southern lifestyle during that time period. The topic change has been very fruitful for me as I have been finding articles on JStor where literary scholars have analyzed his work and made connections to alot of the things that have went on during that time period.

Because of your work on this project and the problems that you encountered, I am granting you an extra week to finish the final paper. I do not want this work to be such that you have to rush and not do a good job. I am glad that we are finding material about Faulkner, and I do think that you will find him to be at least as interesting as Williams might have been. Good work so far. Thanks.
