pg 196: "resesarchers present their stories as case studies, life histories, bios or autoethnography. Their goal is to evoke a situation the author has been in or studied."
I thought I knew what this meant...
*For my PC story, I am an expert now on ET and PC and evacuation - that is why I should tell my story
pg 197: Thinking with a story = narrative analysis, thinking about a story=analysis of narrative
pg 201: *A note on Ellis' writing - I find myself scanning paragraphs to find speaker tags. She puts them far away, making it hard to tell who's speaking.
Pg 213: "In an astute analysis, [A.J.] Muhr compares blogs to more traditional, objective research: on-line informational blogs to taking field notes, and on-line journals with an emphasis on telling and analyzing a good story to autoethnography. Many on-line diarists, she says, are 'still in the field note stage of autoethnography, a listing of events, peppered with feelings and random or tengential thoughts.' Some 'write evocatively with concrete detail, action, and dialogue. They tell a real story. They help me understand more about them, myself, society, the world... . That's the stuff of autoethnography!'"
