[Writingworkshop] narrative voice

[Adam Holland]

OK, so my 15th college reunion is coming up, and there's the usual "submit a
brief description of what you are up to for the class bulletin"
I usualyl eschew these, bu since the 5 year intervlas actually result in a
published volume, I submit something then, but try to have some fun with it.

For example, at my 10th, I rewrote the intro to one of the Conan collections
so that it was about me.
"At this stage in Holland's wanderings, he is in his early thirties, and at
the height of his powers... etc."

So I'm trying to decide what would be funny for this one, because If I'm
just going to do the boiler plate crap, what's the point?

One idea I had was to somehow write it in the 2nd person.  But, I'd like to
see some models if possible.
Are there any available examples of this being done even reasonably well?
