Revision:Autoethnographic reflections on life and work

I have enjoyed Carolyn Ellis' work for some years. This book is her very best. She goes much deeper into her personal feelings,but at he same time she is scholarly in a way that is easy to understand and use as a guideline. "Revision " is a book I can read almost like a novel and at the same time it teaches me so much about writing and understanding theoretical concepts. I am in the second half of my PhD studies using autoethnography as the methodology .Carolyn's writings have helped me to understand the complex world of story writing as a scholarly and academic activity. Thank you Carolyn
