STORYTELLING Part One: The Neurology of Narrative

@brennan thanks for sharing and writing! After talking to some folks I know that project themselves into world/stories and/or experience them first hand, I wondered what why I never felt that way. Later on I found that I likely have aphantasia and SDAM (severely deficient autobio memory) so the non-narrative/anti-narratives points is something I want to dig into (thanks for including source/ref links)

@dirchansky Yr welcome :) While I know about aphantasia, I have never heard of SDAM actually. Thank you for sharing. That is a condition that's really relevant to what I'm covering, and I'll be doing more research.
