Have you heard of #PechaKucha #presentation meetings? Wikipedia: "a #storytelling format in which a presenter shows 20 slides for 20 seconds of commentary each," from the #Japanese word for chatter. Notice also the #narrative #genre of the following book:
NEW PechaKucha Presentation: A Passion for Japan: A Collection of Personal Narratives (a slide and brief description for each of the 30 chapters, by the editor) at https://www.pechakucha.com/presentations/a-passion-for-japan-a-collection-of-personal-narratives
Search "A Passion for Japan" to order the #book on Amazon.
My chapter "Discovering Japanese Fusion of #Religions on the #Pilgrimage Island of #Shikoku" is free at research repositories https://www.academia.edu/82383623 or https://www.researchgate.net/publication/361566172
It is a #research #memoir but it also tells the #story of my life in relation to #Japan. These photos in the slide are from when I was a young researcher.

In the popular new book A Passion for Japan: A Collection of Personal Narratives, 30 authors provide inside perspectives on living in Japan. My chapter "Discovering Japanese Fusion of Religions on the Pilgrimage Island of Shikoku" is free at the research repositories https://www.academia.edu/82383623 or https://www.researchgate.net/publication/361566172
My translation of the chapter into Japanese (和訳): 「巡礼の島・四国で発見した日本の宗教融合」 (corrected by a native speaking university teacher in Kyoto) is free to download from https://works.hcommons.org/records/zjfkj-gy504/files/discovering_ja.pdf
