Autoethnography
• Carolyn Ellis & Art Bochner, USF• Norman Denzin, Illinois
• [autoethnography] urges writers with sociological imagination to connect biography and history, to join the personal with the public.• use of first person narratives as legitimate academic writing form

Evolving writing practice (supervised by Jess Moriarty)
Initial stimulus usually comes from media (radio news programmes, newspapers)
‘Journalistic’ blog, approx. 800-1400 words
Now starting thematically linked, more personal narratives –
experimental styles (dialogue, monologue, sentence length etc)
how should these be published? (short stories, blog, only for thesis)
