The stories of offenders are invaluable for detailing the meanings that people give to their own violations. One would expect a broad knowledge base of methods for collecting and analyzing such stories, but no such thing currently exists. This article attempts to fill that gap, drawing on my own and others' research experiences. Research practice depends on the way that a researcher conceptualizes both narrative and offender, so I pay careful attention to these conceptualizations. I then offer practical advice on best practices of narrative research in criminology
