"I" in academic and scholarly writing

[rm]

This is not a search for advice. This is a point of curiosity to me, because my education was sort of extreme and obsessive on this point, and it occurs to me that perhaps other fifth-graders were not scarred for life by writing papers that said things like "this author feels that Disney World would be an idea summer vacation destination for her family."

So, inquiring minds and all that....

I saw. *pets* You're going to be fine, you know. You just need to relax. It's really not different from the other stuff you do, you've just got it built up in your head.

Email me the cite for that! It sounds awesome & useful for my diss.
