This paper presents an analytical framework called storying stories. It was used to analyse narrative data that was collected as part of a PhD study into the mathematical identity of science and engineering students (MISE). This framework was selected because it relies on the co-construction of meaning between researcher and participant. Mathematical identity is commonly assumed to be a co-constructed phenomenon and thus, narrative methods of data collection and analysis have regularly been employed by mathematical identity researchers. However, the storying stories framework presented in this paper appears to have been overlooked, or perhaps discounted, by these researchers. This stage of the PhD study involved one participant who took part in a pilot narrative interview concerning their mathematical identity. Although thematic analysis allows the development of themes that are common across participants, a new method of analysis was required to use narrative inquiry as a descriptive tool for an individual participant. This paper will present how this method for analysing and presenting such data was applied to this interview.
