the encouragement of first person narrative also fascinates me, again by contrast; in the reviewer comments to my first submitted paper, two of the reviewers objected to the (tiny) amount of first person narrative that i had injected to make the structure of the logic more clear. so i removed it. and in fact, i have chosen my field of study partially because it gets me away from thinking about myself. i'm even carefully staying away from neuroscience, because i would drive myself batshit crazy thinking about my life in context of what the neurons in my own head are up to.
