I'm the narrative theory junkie of the department and I'm always available for discussion about the value of the implied author or the merits of feminist narratology.  My dissertation looks at collaborative and interactive literatures that disrupt our ability to use traditional modes of narrative theory - for example, who exactly is the "sender" of a novel written by twelve people?  How do we define the "fabula" of a massively multi-user online narrative told through weblogs, message boards and IRC chats?  I'm looking at works that span the 20th Century and are "collaborative" in various ways, including some single-author novels that, though their unique form, invite readers to become co-creators of the narrative.
