I am writing away on a book chapter which is intended to be narrative, academic and for a general audience, essay style (1-5k). I am thinking Stephen J Gould territory.
I would welcome input on what help make a good narrative academic essay. I am thinking....
* An overall point that is coherent and informal but rigorous.
* An element of humor and use of personal anecdote when appropriate
* Points informed by research and other non-fiction but not cited in text (bibiliogrpahy at end)
any thoughts?
