#JaneSmiley has won numerous awards for her writing, including the #PulitzerPrize. Here, in an interview she gave at the University of California, she discusses two distinct kinds of authors and the effect their writing has on them. • “ #Dickens had several childhood issues... that he finally dealt with in #DavidCopperfield.” • Does the effect of writing upon an author tell us anything about the psychological makeup and style of that author? Also, do certain types of people gravitate toward certain author *personalities* or is an authors personality irrelevant to the creation of a book and its style?
