Long-running independent work that predates and extends beyond any single publication.

Natural history

Extinction Archives / 绝迹志

A public web project I created about animals that became extinct in modern times. It currently presents condensed overviews drawn from earlier work, covering their evolution, ecology, and extinction history. My subsequent, more extensive research into extinct birds developed into the natural-history nonfiction book 《鸟儿永不归来》.

Chinese writing archive

Rainy Day Bakery / 雨中面包店

A long-running writing site with fiction, criticism, and essays on film, comics, culture, and other subjects. Much of this writing is in Chinese and predates my current natural-history work.
