Livre d'Or

Your identity: I'm Yoon Ha Lee, a 30something Korean-American. I write science fiction and fantasy, I got my bachelor's in math (and use that in writing sf/f, although not for math per se!), am a fan (Buffyverse, Fullmetal Alchemist, other things as the mood strikes me), and like to draw and compose for fun. I'm bipolar and on occasion I discuss that, too.
What you are passionate about: Writing. Music theory and composition (amateur level). Books--sometimes sf/f, but mostly nonfiction these days. I especially like reading about military history, linguistics, mathematics, popular science, but I'll read a variety of things for the heck of it.
How you use Dreamwidth: Brief book reports. Sporky rants about books I thought were awful, but I am happy to talk about books I loved, too. TV/manga/other fannish viewing/reading reports. The occasional collection of random links to interesting/peculiar things. It's a potpourri; probably the list of tags is a good indicator of the range of topics that come and go.
A link to a recent post of yours that is characteristic of your journal or writing style:: A negative review post on the novel The Patience Stone.
A link to a journal on Dreamwidth you think people might enjoy reading, even if they don't know the writer personally: thistleingrey, who posts interesting book reviews, often on academic nonfiction.
